Armed Guards on Board
During the QM2's 4th of July sail there were armed National Guard troops on board during the New York harbour portions of the cruise. This may have been specifically because of the 4th of July nature of this particular cruise or perhaps they are always on when the QM2 sails into New York, I do not know. In light of yesterday's terrible event in London and of course 9/11 is this something that you think we will be seeing more of? Have you seen armed guards on a cruise ship, military or otherwise? How would this effect the vacation experience for you?
