Well...its been 4 1/2 months...and were done with combat operations! Have hit one good port (Cannes, France) 9 days after we left home on July 7th....and then came out to the Gulf, and supported Operation Iraqi Freedom, and then 55 days later we hit Dubai for 4 days....then headed down to support Operation Enduring Freedom for a month...then back to Dubai...then out for another month....and back to Dubai...left the Gulf, out for about a week, to support OIF again...and now were out of the Gulf and headed West... no port visits on the way...just home! Back to back cruises isn't as bad as I thought...just hope I can see my girls born...and cant wait to see some Blues games...so far I have paid for Center Ice, and have not seen one game... ...but will in a few weeks....
O yeah, and if anyone watches the ARMY vs NAVY game....we made a commercial for it....they had the majority of the ship go on the flight deck and yell....GO NAVY BEAT ARMY.....and with the AFN network, we dont get to see the normal commercials....so just let me know if you see our commercial....
Headed West!
