Patricia,
Can you IM me the information about Homecoming at the Pier? My husband is doing the TC but my son's girlfriend and I are flying to Norfolk for the homecoming. I am a bit worried about coming in the late the night before and not having a lot of directions or information.

Thanks,
Bonita

I think we need to attend the night before to get passes for the base, but I've never did this before either, Rhonda would be the one to ask, but I'm sure they will get all that info out soon.

Hi Patricia:) How old is your son's brother? I am not sure on how many can go and such but I would ask the ombudsman that question.
Hope all is well for you and let me know if you need anything okay?
Hugs,
Rhonda

Welcome Patricia:)
The Tiger Cruise is when we get to meet the ship probably in Mayport when the ship is coming home.
Only the same sex can go on the IKE, so for instance I have a son and won't be able to attend my my DH can, unless I know of a gal that doesn't have a family member coming in.
Hope that helps!
