On September 13, 2001, President Bush told the world We will Never Forget. And now, on March 1st 2008, A US Navy ship, built from those very towers, with the motto Never Forget will be christened New York.Don’t miss it this weekend. View it live in a web-cast from Northrop Grumman Shipbuilding in Avondale LA. Watch as the ships sponsor, Mrs. Dotty H. England breaks the ceremonial bottle of champagne across her bow and proclaims, I christen thee New York. Out of our greatest sorrow comes an even greater symbol of our resilience. The USS New Yorks importance to this City, State and Nation cannot be underestimated. There is no other ship in world history that will carry the import and prestige that this vessel carries. She will become Americas greatest naval ambassador and will carry our flag to the 4 corners of the world throughout the 21st century.Fair Winds and following seas to the USS New York and the US Navy-Marines Corps team. Godspeed.
