p—here was quite a nice reunion for George Washington after the ship returned home to a boisterous crow d gathered on the y pier Dec. 20, 2002. For the first time in six months Sailors and loved ones embraced. Fortunately, it was not the onh j m contact they were allowed in that time. Although Sailors stayed focused on their round-thc clock shipboard duties, GW gave than plenty of w ays to keep in touch during the deployment. Not that long ago mail call was precious. “It was the most important thing for Sailors at sea,” said AOCM(AW SW) Cari 1 Barton, weapons department leading chief petty officer. During the deployment GW's men and women still looked forward to receiving letters and care packages, but keeping in touch with home and family is light years ahead of the pen and pad thanks to advances in communications technology. In May 2003, BM2(AW SW) Phillipp P. Pickle is getting married “to my beautiful fiance, Nicole.” During the 2002 deployment. Pickle communicated his love and helped plan the weeding in four different ways. “I wrote her, e-mailed her and got to call her often.” Pickle said. “It made a huge difference in us staying close.” In Barton's earliest Navy days he would have to practically rely on sending his messages in a bottle. “There w-as noCNN.no newspapers, no anything, the 24-ycar veteran said. “All we had was the armed forces message traffic, and that message was sent maybe once a week. I used [the Internet] this morning to take care of a bill. It used to take Sailors forever to pay a bill or find out a problem if they were having one.” i
