Hi,
GREAT NEW PHOTOS
Here SHE is! As you scroll down, notice the two twin towers on top.
he two twin towers on top.
Here SHE is, the USS New
York, made from the
World
Trade
Center !
USS
New York
It was built with 24 tons of
scrap steel from the
World
Trade
Center ..
It is the fifth in a new class of warship -
designed for missions that include special
operations against terrorists. It will carry a
crew of 360 sailors and 700 combat-ready Marines
to be delivered ashore by helicopters and
assault craft.
Steel
from the
World
Trade
Center was melted
down in a foundry in
Amite , LA to
cast the ship’s bow section. When it was poured
into the molds on Sept 9, 2003, ‘those big rough
steelworkers treated it with total reverence,’
recalled Navy Capt. Kevin Wensing, who was there.
‘It was a spiritual moment for everybody
there.’
Junior Chavers, foundry operations
manager, said that
when the trade center steel first arrived, he
touched it with his hand and the ‘hair on my
neck stood up.’ ‘It had a big meaning to it for
all of us,’ he said. ‘They knocked us
down. They
can’t keep us down. We’re going to be
back.’
The
ship’s motto?
‘Never Forget’

I had watched a report that showed the steel being carted away. But the steel was being carted away to inspect it. There were 200 girders, which may not seem like a lot but they were selected.
I found this report:

Hello Companyone,
I think this piece has potential and am wondering if you might add some of your own words to it. Thanks.

Ummm, I thought one of the major problems with 9/11 evidence was the fact that all of the steel was carted before it could be examined?

Hi Pythiian1,
This was emailed me to me by a friend of mine...The comments are really his at the beginning of the article. Not sure where he got the photos done. I had not even heard of this back in 2003...not until about a week or so ago. I just pretty much thought it was a great use of all the scrap metal from that terrible day...And pretty much show's the Terrorist and the rest of the world...that the USA still stands for Peace and Liberty...and that America can still turn something bad into something that's good a positive.
Much better Idea than to just sell off the scrap metal for money...and I think most the family's of the victims of 9/11 would agree. And I think it sends a very powerful message to all our Military personal as well as the rest of the world...That the USA is still the great country it has always been.....Its been almost 8 years....so lets us ALL not forget.
Best,
Dan
