Not to sea, exactly - to a safer port given the weather, then on to North Carolina to offload Marines.
NEW YORK (AP) -- The USS New York has left its namesake city after finishing up its inaugural visit.
The Navy ship was built in Louisiana with steel from the rubble of the World Trade Center. It arrived in the city last week and was officially commissioned over the weekend.
Lt. Commander Suzanna Brugler says the ship left at 7 a.m. Thursday for a naval weapons station in New Jersey.


I wonder if redneck teabaggers will refuse to serve on a Ship named after that disgusting liberal city, New Yawk? Just wondering.

Don't hurt yourself, sissy. That was quite a stretch.

Too bad the Obama Party and its base have to attack the children of military members, isn't it?

Pretty interesting, how Proud Liberal actually responds to the military and what Barack Obama is having done to the children of military members.
