I said to someone onboard that is was a slap in the face and they responded it was more a slap on the fanny. Giddyup and get outta here!

LOL, I bet everyone was just a little giddy.

Were you worried about your safety anytime (before boarding the ship)?

The IAF is highly accurate and even dropped leaflets warning civilians in areas they intended to strike so I never worried about my safety from airstrikes. What I (and other Americans with me) did worry about were the local militias in South Beirut coming to the hotels looking for western hostages. After all, taking hostages is their "thing."
