CRUISEBCCK After a deployment is over the mind tends to forget what happened. We remember the best parts the longest and usually forget the worst immediately. If some of these desciptions seem to be vague that is deliberate. All of us see things a little differently and one man's memories will not be another's. In an effort to jog the memory in future years this cruisebook has been prepared. Endless hours of preparation on the part of the volunteer staff lead to what is contained within these pages. Not to be forgotten are those non-staff photo-bugs who helped by contributing their photos, too.
