Cruise Book CD Presentation Advantages and Features
| Statistics show that only 25-35% of sailors purchased their cruise book. Many who didn't probably wished they would have as they got older. It's a nice way to show them that you care about their past and appreciate the sacrifice they and many others made for us and our country. We never knew what life was like for a sailor in World War II until we started taking an interest in these great books. We found pictures of a relative who served on the USS Essex CV 9 during WW II. We never knew they existed. He passed away at a very young age and we never really 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 if they choose. We hope you can experience the same thing for your family. |
