What a great ship to be on. Everything worked, the chow was outstanding and the squids let us watch TV in their area after hours.

Merry Christmas Marines — and may you spend the next one home with your loved ones....

Until then, may the shield and sword of our Lord and Savior be with you and protect you...

I spent MANY months in the Arabian Sea on the USS Tarawa many years ago.

She's a fine ship...at least after they fixed the plumbing.

It was once a pretty gross place to live in high seas. 28ft draft for a 40k ton vessel...flight deck 90 ft above the water line. They forgot to put one-way baffles in the sewage lines at construction...

Merry Christmas, keep your head on a swivel, God's speed and may you come back to your family safe and sound. I know that would be the greatest gift of all.

I will say a prayer for you and your brothers this evening.
