There is a ship, a navy ship. It is called the USS New York. It is big like other navy ships, and it sails like other navy ships, but there is something special about the USS New York.
Following the events of September 11, 2001, a steel beam from the World Trade Center towers was given to the United States Navy.
The beam was driven from New York to a foundry in Louisiana.
Metal workers heated the beam to a high, high temperature.
Chippers and grinders, painters and polishers worked on the beam for months.
