The U.S. Navy ship, the USS New York containing tons of steel left from the September 11th, 2001 loss of life, and the Twin Towers, was placed in service today in New York City.

There are other sources reporting on the event, but I have linked to the BBC News online version because they have other links that tell much more of the ship’s story.

Here is a quote from the BBC story:

“No matter how many times you attack us, we always come back,” US Secretary of the Navy Ray Mabus said.

The video on the link features Secretary of State Clinton’s remarks. You can access the story and video here CLICK

The links to more of the ship’s story is on the right side of the article.
