NEW YORK (LPD-21) Christened
March 1st, 2008 by xformed
Today was the day of the time honored tradition of christening of a US Naval vessel, in this case, the one day to be the USS NEW YORK (LPD-21). House of 1000 Corpses divx I Wanna Hold Your Hand
NEW YORK will carry to sea 7.5 tons of steel salvaged from the Ground Zero site in her stem, a reminder for all the days of her service of that day in our history. CDR F. Curtis Jones, USN, will have the honor of serving as the PCO.
History…plenty of it was on display today to honor the victims and heroes of 9/11.
