  • getting ready for the Stennis Tiger Cruise this will be my third one and its great getting to spend time with my son at his job. Just wondering if any of you other dads are friends of Bill W.

  • He got out because he was tired of slakers being rewarded, homos in berthing, being away for 6 to 8 months. The new USN has been neutered by obummer. They are no longer a fighting force. They now have to ask the LT how not to piss off the PC crowd before they can kill an enemy.

  • My Sailor got out after six years, he made PO1. It was very sad when he told me the very cool flashlight we gave him was stolen from him in the very small world of CIWS. Additionally his other job working security, he brought his $1000 camera into the security room down by the galley, he went for rounds and some low life stole his $1000 camera. I personally witnessed skaters and work avoiders on my 2 Tiger cruises. My kid worked his ass off, but the skaters knew which ass to kiss and were praised. Finally the witness of Homo sexual sex in berthing was enough. My Sailor did his six and left the rest to others. I was so sad to see that the USN is just another soap opera with all the ongoing PC nonsense. ISN'T Stennis a WARSHIP, or is it a social experiment?

  • Hi group,hope to meet all who are going on this tiger.This will be my third on the Stennis and more than likley my last as Son will have Shore duty next two years. Love to hear from others going and OBTW any other friends of Bill W. making the trip?

  • Thanks! Yes for sure the tiger cruise is the least of our concerns. We could have still gone but just felt without Cody we wouldn't enjoy as much.
    It's still up in the air whether they can control these flare ups. Worse case he would be discharged. And yes, We believe is God's perfect plan. Thanks again!
  • I just read through the thread, and while I share your disappointment and concern for Cody's health, I'm happy he's in good hands at Balboa, and will heal. I know he's tough because you don't make rescue swimmer without intense focus and determination. There will be other deployments, and Tiger Cruise opportunities, for you guys. God knows what He's doing, and He's doing it for your good, as well as Cody's. Hold fast friend!
  • I had planned on it paid and everything, but son Cody developed a severe infection in his colon. He has since been admitted to Balboa Naval Hospital in San Diego. Maybe we will get another chance another deployment.
  • I'm going Tiger Cruising at the end of this deployment. I've done a lot of exciting things, in my life, but this will probably top them all. Anyone else planning to go?
  • Stennis family, your Sailors are back at sea. Underway, shift colors.

  • My Son,Cody, is aboard the Stennis with the HSC-71 Raptors as a Rescue Swimmer. Thanks to everyone for their support and service!

Gear Adrift

Recent discussion on the Stennis page has been concerning shipboard theft and gear adrift. While I sorely wish that we could just simply trust our shipmates. I have seen too many thefts. This is a concept that is drilled into us during boot camp. Sadly, it does not always stick, and people get hurt.
