USS New York Makes Maiden Voyage From New Orleans to New York City

NEW ORLEANS, Louisiana —  The USS New York is heading from New Orleans to its namesake city on its maiden voyage Tuesday morning.

The warship is an amphibious transport dock ship that was built in Louisiana and named in honor of the victims of the attacks of Sept. 11, 2001. It incorporates in its construction nearly eight tons of steel salvaged from the fallen World Trade Center towers.

The USS New York left south Louisiana, where it was built, on Tuesday. The Navy will officially commission it in New York in early November.

I'm surprised all the "lord zer0 lovers" haven't demanded that this be renamed for their savior...after all, he did win the nobel peace (of cr*p) prize.

In related news, Lord Zero, the CinC of all he surveys ,, has decided the USS New York will be decommissioned since it's name infers to much patriotism.  Renaming it is not an option, because the ship will remind people of what his religion inflicted on the people of the US.
