<p>Hi again everyone!</p>
<p></p>
<p>I know it has been a LONG time since you've heard from me. I just wanted to follow through with my promise. I left NBC for another job opportunity, but before I left I passed this story off to a trusted friend and producer, Steve Louie in the Burbank bureau. It took us a year but the story finally got done! Thanks to everyone for your help. You can see it in the link below. …</p>

<p>The Tiger Cruise experience is something unforgettable.....I find myself going back and re-reading the series of my blog posts from my cruise in '09 and it brings the experiences back to life so to speak....the sights, smells, and sounds are indelibly etched into my memory!!! Seeing our sailors at work brings the entire Navy journey into sharp focus and certainly made me appreciate the work and dedication that our sons and daughters put into their Navy career.</p>

<p>Dexter,</p>
<p>Please keep us posted on how this progress's. We definitely want to feature the upcoming story on our site. We hope it's one of our own but in any case we want our Community to be tuned in when it airs. Just the subject about Tiger Cruises, our Sailors, & their Families has me hooked. Best of luck in putting this together and don't forget to update us from time to time.</p>

<p>Hello Dexter,<br/><br/>My name is Mike Walent and I will be going on a 2012 Tiger Cruise aboard the USS Carl Vinson CVN-70 in the time frame suggested. I am ex Navy and also my wife Terri is retired Navy. My son Michael Jr. is stationed aboard the Carl Vinson. I will be taking our youngest son Matthew with me as well. <br/><br/>The Tiger Cruise is something I told Michael about when he joined the Navy. I mentioned that it would be great if there was an opportunity to have old Dad come and check out "His New Navy". Soon after reporting for duty he call us from the Persian Gulf and told me that they were doing the Tiger Cruise from Pearl Harbor, Hawaii back to the ships home port of San Diego, California at the end of their deployment. <br/><br/>Needless to say we are extremely excited to go aboard as Tigers! My wife Terri and I are hoping to get Matthew encouraged in the Navy so as to keep the family tradition alive. Hopefully this experience will make the same impression on Matthew as it has on the rest of us. <br/><br/>When we arrive in San Diego my wife Terri and Michael's Fiance' Trish will be meeting the ship. Michael and Trish will be getting married shortly after arrival. Therefore there is yet another level of excitement in store for us!<br/><br/>We would be glad to assist you in your story should you desire.<br/><br/>Best regards,<br/><br/>Mike<br/><br/></p> Thank You CO-Admin, Calvin~ I…tag:navydads.com,2012-04-03:2150375:Comment:2570422012-04-03T22:26:07.749ZMichelerenee Janshttps://navydads.com/profile/MichelereneeJans
<p>Thank You CO-Admin, Calvin~ I appreciate the warm welcome.</p>
<p>I have not used my actual name nor will I ever my sailor's name etc. I too would like to thank your family member for their service and dedication to our Country as you have my sailor's. It's with great commitment and promise to my sailor that I say; I'm surviving his 2nd deployment in the wild blue with a possible back to back deployment on another means of transportation once he returns. Thank you again to your family…</p>
