Navy Ship USS York With Steel From WTC Christened Today

FOX News.

Never Forgive Never Forget


AVONDALE, La.
Thousands of people, including families of those who died in the Sept. 11, 2001 terror attacks, gathered Saturday for an at-times chilling and rallying service to christen a Navy ship built with twisted steel from the ruins of the World Trade Center.

The hulking grey USS New York, which abruptly rose from the horizon, bore a seal on the bow bearing 7.5 tons of steel from the site. The shield included two gray bars to symoblize the Twin Towers; a banner over that declared "Never Forget."


Wish I could have been there to see that in person. What an awesome sight it must have been.
