USS New Yorkers
November 9, 2009 | New York, New York | Vetting explained
Ryan, Croxton, Ramos, Stout, Schmidt, Smith, Ginn, Moller- captain, chief, PFC, lance corporal.
Names, titles and ranks of some of the service men and women of the USS New York, visiting the city for the first time.
I'm not sure if any of them is from New York or has ever been here before, but this week they were all New Yorkers and we thank them for the time they took to talk to us, greet us on the streets, share stories from their tours of duty and thrilled us with equipment demonstrations.
And most of all, we thank them for their service.

iReport stories that have a red "CNN iReport" stamp in the corner have been vetted and
cleared. That means they've been selected and approved by a CNN producer to use on CNN,
on air, or on any of CNN's platforms.
