Someone mentioned regarding the Going Home boarding handout I bashed together that the tone of it was good (and important) because it painted a picture of things not being quite so bad. Perhaps the Norfolk destination is meant to be the same thing to US Servicemen and Women. Hey, we're going home - to Norfolk, the big US Navy base. Things are still up and running back home! Woo! Versus Hey, we're going to run the ships aground near Myrtle Beach and everyone has to scramble off via nets because every port on the East Coast is fucked beyond believe thanks to saturation nuclear strikes.
