NORFOLK, Va. (AP) - The Navy says it will webcast the homecoming celebration of the USS George H.W. Bush's return to Norfolk.
The aircraft carrier and its strike group will arrive back in its home port on Saturday following a seven-month deployment. It was the first deployment for the Navy's newest aircraft carrier.
The Navy will broadcast the ceremonies at Naval Station Norfolk on its Facebook page as well as its Livestream channel beginning at 10 a.m.
A Foursquare event entitled "George H.W. Bush Carrier Strike Group Homecoming" has also been created for in-person attendees to check in to. The Navy is also encouraging Twitter users conversing about the event to use the hashtag #GHWBCSG.
