USS New York (LPD 21)
A Brief History
(...)
The newest ship to bear the name has acquired a distinguished history of her own before she even set sail. The ship and her motto, “Strength Forged Through Sacrifice - Never Forget,” pay homage to the victims and first responders of the Sept. 11, 2001 terrorist attacks. The ship contains 7.5 tons of steel recovered from the remains of the World Trade Center towers within her bow. According to Dotty England, the ship’s sponsor and the wife of former Secretary of the Navy Gordon England, “I went to the pouring of the steel down at Amite, Louisiana, and not just myself, but everybody connected in that steel mill, treated that steel with utmost dignity. It was rather quiet, everybody handled it with dignity. The steel workers in Amite felt like they were contributing to the defense of the nation.”
 
In a poetically apropos gesture, USS New York was delivered to the fleet on August 21, 2009, at 9:11 am.
