For the first time, a lesbian couple today marked a time-honored Navy homecoming tradition in which a sailor is chosen to be the first off the ship to exchange a kiss with a loved one, The Virginian-Pilot reports.

The USS Oak Hill returned to the naval base at Virginia Beach, Va., after almost three months at sea training in Central America.

As homecoming approached, the crew and the ship's family readiness group sold $1 raffle tickets to pick the sailor to be first off the ship to deliver the coveted first kiss on the dock.

Petty Officer 2nd Class Marissa Gaeta bought 50 tickets and won, the newspaper reports.

Navy officials said it was the first time on record that a same-sex couple was chosen to kiss first upon a ship's return, the Associated Press reports.
