CARNIVAL Cruise Line has found the perfect way to thank US troops for their service by producing burgers with kind words printed on their buns.
The cruise line hosted US military troops during a backyard barbecue-themed event at the base in San Diego, serving up burgers with a laser printed message.
Americans were encouraged to show their appreciation on social media using the hashtag #ThankYouBurger and these messages were sent in real time to a tech-enabled grill.
In recognition of the 15,000 thank you messages transmitted, Carnival donated $25,000 to the organisation.
Carnival Vista godmother Deshauna Barber – the first woman serving in the US Military to be named Miss USA – joined Carnival chief maritime officer William Burke and operation homefront ceo John Pray in serving over 2,000 “Thank You Burgers”.
A serviceman with Carnival Corporation chairman Micky Arison’s message printed on his burger is pictured.
