"Never Forget"
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. Steel from the World Trade Center was
melted down in a foundry in Amite, LA to cast the ship's bow section.
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'
