Hi All.  I just finished the 2012 Tiger Cruise in February between Pearl Harbor and San Diego.  I was in Civies  and "the people who were working for a living" could not had threated me any better.  They were a very proud group of men and women.  The Officers are really hard workers too.  When asked by the Ops O what I thought, I told him that the Pilot squadrons left the most trash lay around than I could have expected.  Otherwise the time I spent in Pri Fly and on the deck, aft deck or bubble while flight ops is running and it is all very impressive.  I've never seek such a close area like the ship that had so many different smells.  I loved to find some of the younger sailors and just listen to their stories at sea.  My son was a shooter aboard the Stennis and was the CO HD-7 Hangar Deck.  It was a fantastic overall experience that imprinted a sences of honor in my mind not just with my son, but with the entire crew.  IT WAS DEFINATELY SOMETHING I WILL NEVER FORGET!

At the airport in San Diego on Monday.  WOW what a great time.  I can not begin to express how thankful I am of the entire staff of the CVN 74.  The Can Do attitude of all the sailors on-board was a tribute to our great nation

On the Ronald Reagan it took 6 days to travel from Hawaii to San Diego!!  I had a great time with my son (12 yrs old).

Comment by Ray Jones on March 17, 2013 at 8:13pm
I am wondering if another tiger wants to share a hotel room while waiting for the USS Stennis to come into Hawaii? I am making travel arrangements and would love to split a room.
