USS New York Rising From The Ashes and Never Forgetting
Over the past 236 years, numerous ships have borne the name USS New
York, but none are more significant than this amphibious transport
dock. With the bow including seven and a half tons of World Trade
Center steel, this ship is a constant reminder that America will
always rise up during difficult times, and our fallen will never be
forgotten.
Here is a look at this ship of remembrance with comments
from her Sailors and Marines eleven years after September 11, 2001
when America's homeland was violently attacked by fanatical
terrorists ... never forgetting ... proudly ready to respond
decisively to what may come.
