The website is up. Feel free to send me the pertinent information (As much or as little as you'd like) and a picture.

The site is http://www.tiggerfan.net/DISaster


I'm not going to post e-mail since we can all use PM here and I don't feel like having people get spam. You can e-mail me at jeffc@tiggerfan.net and put October Cruise Info in the subject line.

You can also send me a PM here with the relevant info.

I've also added a DIS events listing. Again, e-mail or PM me to get on it. *PLEASE* don't e-mail anything that is small or informal or that you don't want the world to know about.

If you wan't to hold a DIS shuffleboard event, by all means, post it on my list. If you want another group for high tea, just post here.

I would like to take a moment and introduce myself and my DW who have just swapped onto this cruise. This will be my DW's (Mina) first time at sea. As for me I have plenty of time at sea, but all of that was on an aircraft carrier almost 20 years ago now. This will be about the first trip without the children and we are looking forward to it.

Welcome chuck. I'm sure you'll enjoy it.

What carrier were you on? My uncle served on the America for a few years as a Maintenance Officer for the EA-6B

I was on the Forrestal. Spent about half my time as R Division Officer. There is nothing quite like driving an aircraft carrier.

Heh, no kidding.

Thats probably one license I'll never collect. (I joke that I collect licenses, I've been an EMT, Monorail Pilot, Ham Radio Operator and Airplane pilot so far, and working on my Scuba Cert).

It will definitely be nice to have you join us.

I'm hoping you weren't on board back in 67 were you?

I'm impressed, someone knows the other nickname for the ship. No, I served in the mid-80's. Although when we were in the shipyards in Philly, you could still see some of the damage. There is also nothing more impressive than seeing a carrier on the blocks and looking up from under the keel.

Yeah, the USS Forrest Fire. Don't put APU's next to missiles.

That would be amazing seeing that thing out of water.

Being only 29, I've only seen all the documentaries etc, but I hear they are *STILL* using that incident for training in the Navy.

Bubbles does work... I've been sorting out the confusion that is this hospital and very thankful I only have 30 days left!
