USS New York goes home

The new Navy assault ship USS New York, built with World Trade Center steel, arrived in its namesake city Monday with a 21-gun salute near the site of the 2001 terrorist attack.


The USS New York was discussed on this very blog just 2 weeks ago: Going Home.

Just saying.

Going Home

Back in May I wrote about The US's First Littoral Combat Ship and it's capabilities.

Over at Neptunus Lex it is noted that the amphibious transport dock, the USS New York, was launched on Tuesday for her commissioning in November.


As can be seen by the Coat of Arms of the USS New York, above, this ship was made with a purpose.
