Passing in the Night

Twenty years ago my son and his wife who were both in the Navy and stationed on different ships homeported at different locations. He was deploying on a Med cruise and his wife was returning from a Med cruise. It was determined their ships were going to pass each other in close proximity, and since they were newly weds, their CO's decided to get them together to say good-bye. It worked perfectly. They got to spend a few minutes together and then they were off on their way again.
