How is everyone, hope all is well with you and yours. I hear from the boy almost everyday, big change from boot camp. He has said he will be on the east coast, on a GM Frigate. He is very excited.

save for the hanger deck, space is pretty darn limited on a carrier as well!!!

Have to laugh because the carriers are "big city" life.  Before we did our Tiger Cruise (on a destroyer) we got instructions about bringing folding chairs and plenty of comfortable blankets to watch the movies on an interior deck which would have the doors open.  Then we got an apology message with DO NOT bring folding chairs, space is limited.  Once aboard, we knew why - some of the rabbit holes you have to navigate aren't big enough to get even folding chairs through.  LOL!

seems the parents react more strongly than do the sailors.......I heard A LOT of sailors during my Tiger Cruise on the USS Theodore Roosevelt use the term "boat" for the carrier..........in the end...does it really matter?  And also heard it plenty on my daughters carrier, USS Abraham Lincoln......

chuck:  Don't worry.  We're just the parents/relatives, not the experts.  LOL!
