On Thursday, November 5, USS New York Commanding Officer F. Curtis Jones accompanied by his crew members and Marines from Marine Expeditionary Unit 26 visited the New York Stock Exchange to commemorate the commissioning of the USS New York on November 7. The USS New York, whose bow is hardened by 7.5 tons of steel salvaged from the wreckage of the World Trade Center, will sail into New York harbor on November 2nd and will be greeted by vessels from Federal, State and City organizations, as well as local municipalities, ferry companies and private boats. Many of these vessels were first responders on September 11th, helping with evacuation and assisted with the aftermath as New York worked to clean-up and rebuild. The commissioning of the USS New York will take place on Saturday, November 7 at the Intrepid Museum, and Pier 88. The formal ceremony will honor the memory of those killed in the attacks and show appreciation to the men and women who have chosen to go in harms way to protect and defend the American way of life.
