I went to high school with her.

She wasn't native then.

I live in Massachusetts and we have to listen to that shrieking voice every day. It's like getting scolded by your grammar school principal. But, on the bright side, everything will be free!! ( Unless you have more than $2 in the bank)

Ive always said claymores can be used for other things than cooking ''C's........:clapping:...

Duct tape serves so many purposes! I always said as an FF/EMT I could do half of what I needed to in the back of an ambulance with only duct tape and paper towels.

She may even ask Joe to be her VP. What a "Team" that would be. :laugh:

Not a Commissioning, but..

The carrier John F. Kennedy is being christened Saturday 12/7 at Newport News Shipyard. Caroline Kennedy is supposed to break the champagne bottle.

I was offered tickets, but have a previous engagement and my wife can't stay out in the 40 something degree weather for 6 hours. My son will be there, he helped build it.

Christening of aircraft carrier John F. Kennedy

I found a nice video of the Christening of aircraft carrier USS John F. Kennedy CVN79. You can enjoy the ceremony here.

Thanks for posting.

My son was in the crowd somewhere. He sent me this pic.

I watched after I happened across a link this morning. Well worth the hour out of my morning!

I normally view commissioning ceremonies and this is the first time I've seen a christening ceremony, this is different.

 

[trike lady]

The commissioning coin for the USS INDIANAPOLIS LCS17 finally arrived. :clapping:

I try to watch every year, when possible. It is very exciting & a charged atmosphere.

Navy has a good team this year. Go Navy!:clapping:

 

[trike lady]

I agree, Go Navy!:clapping:

 

[trike lady]

I have to admit, this is awesome. A big Thank you to BillR and his son. :clapping: I'll send a more formal thank you. The surprise of the scarf was like someone read my mind, its funny I was watching the ceremony and I thought to myself I'd like to have one of those scarfs as that is very unique memorabilia. The program is 'Interactive' with the phone app, I didn't mess with it as I handled the program like it was a Faberge Egg with a lot of care. Everything is great.

Navy has a pretty good team this year. They are favored by 10.5 points, which doesn't always mean a lot in these games.

1 factor could be rain/lousy weather.

 

[BillR]

Val, happy to be able to do it. Glad you like the mementos.

My son is proud of the work he does. He spent a LOT of hours on CVN 79.
