When Cruise lands at Hoquiam's Bowerman Field around 5 p.m., Mayor Pro Tem Bill Simpson will greet him at the airport and present him with a book detailing famous Aberdeen residents, a history lesson and a city pin. Simpson said police will have their lights flashing and sirens blaring as they escort Cruise's entourage six miles to the SouthShore Mall.
"This is the biggest thing since Nirvana," said Simpson, temporary mayor of the town of 16,000. Kurt Cobain, the late lead singer of the famed Seattle grunge band, grew up in the Western Washington logging town.
