Tiger Cruise, is when an immediate family member gets to meet a ship on it's return from deployment and ride along for a few days to home port. The Tiger Cruise for this deployment of The Bush has been canceled. I was planning to go, but will settle for being on the pier when they come home and spending 10 days in Norfolk with my son!
Here is the link to the Navy Dads Tiger Cruise Group
I email with my son on a regular basis, and as mentioned above, OPSEC forbids him from discussing the deployment schedule. He has said he "hopes" to be home for Thanksgiving, but the keyword there is " hopes". This is his second trip to that part of the world, and given the current situation. The Navy could extend the cruise.
We thank you for replying to my question. We were able to follow his deployment trip for most of the time, so I was hoping to follow his return trip. Just an over anxious parent...sorry!!
we're extremely careful about not posting ship movements due to OPSEC guidelines. This is a pretty generic post....just always remember that is this a public site and while we have some restricted groups (SEAL groups) that do not show up to the general public, almost everything else does!!! Welcome to the site!!!

I hear a lot about the Tiger Cruise, but have no idea what it is.
Can anyone fill me in?
Thanks
