Personal comment from "navyboy63" The cruise book CD's are a great inexpensive way of preserving historical family heritage for yourself, children or grand children especially if you or a loved one has served aboard the ship. It is a way to get connected with the past especially if you no longer have the human connection. If your loved one is still with us, they might consider this to be a priceless gift. Statistics show that only 25-35% of personnel purchased their own book. Many probably wished they would have. Time and age have a lot to do with it. It's a nice way to show them that you care about their past and appreciate the sacrifice they and many others made for you and the FREEDOM of our country. Would also be great for school research projects or just self interest in World War II documentation. I never knew what life was like for a sailor in World War II until I started taking an interest in these great books. I found pictures which we never knew existed of my Father-in-law who served on the USS Essex CV 9 during World War II. He passed away at a very young age and we never got a chance to hear many of his stories. Somehow by viewing his cruise book which we never saw until recently has reconnected the family with his legacy and Naval heritage. Even if we did not find the pictures in the cruise book it was a great way to see what life was like for him. We now consider these to be family treasures. His children, grand children and great grand children can always be connected to him in some small way which they can be proud of. This is what motivates and drives me to do the research and development of these great cruise books. I hope you can experience the same thing for your family. If you belong to a ships association this might be a nice thing to offer at the reunions. If you have any questions send us an E-mail prior to purchasing. Thanks for looking!
