 I'm not sure how much mail we brought on today, but it was good to see some bills finally show up.
The Engineering Bulletin Board was updated, here (right) LTJG Germann and ICCS Crum presenting IC3 Barrett with a letter of promotion.
Indy was steaming into the sun as is sat tonight, with nothing behind us but water.
Steaming into the sunset...

Even though the sun went down several hours ago, it's hot!
Well, we're out steaming in the big lake again after four days of liberty
in Jebel Ali, the stars are shining and there's hardly a wave out there. Tonight
they celebrated Cinco de Mayo on the aft mess decks with nachos, burritos, tamales and
refried beans... ice-cream for dessert. Outside they were wrapping up a RAS (refuel
at sea) and the guys topside were preparing the flightdeck for tomorrow.
Our twelfth ballcap winner was selected over the inport and it turns out he's very familiar with Indy because he was a part of her first crew.
The flightdeck was active with maintenance, drills, and test getting it ready for flying tomorrow. ABE Chad Bogart (below) from San Diego, CA said he was washing out the grab, which retracts the shuttle, on one of Indy's catapults.
