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'
 
 Please keep this going so everyone can see
 what we are made of in this country!
