Perhaps you all heard a massive sigh as Alpha finished up with flashlight exams and port arrival briefs for the 2/C today. Meanwhile, the battle of chipping and painting continued throughout the ship. Sodexo provided a late meal offering of chicken wings as we are eating down our food stores prior to our Portland arrival. As grades are being tabulated, I would like to take a minute to recognize those handful of 2/C who topped the charts academically on Cruise A.
