Talk:USS Bulkeley

9 / 11
"On 8 December 2001 she was commissioned during a pierside ceremony at the Intrepid Sea, Air and Space Museum in New York City, New York."- had Someone tell me she was the first United States ship to pull into New York city post 9/11 (11 September 2001). Wfoj3 (talk) 14:32, 15 January 2022 (UTC)
 * Can you clarify this? -  wolf  15:15, 15 January 2022 (UTC)
 * Talking with another veteran is my source/ he did not specify dates0 the article specifies the date and location of the comissioning. From this I now know he was a Plankholder (comissioning Crew). New York Area NOT a homeport area, not a regular port of call for the United States Navy. I thing there is in the spring frequently A "Fleet Week" Several ships will pull into New York, be open for tours, and new places to visit for the crew on their liberty days.- This was not part of that. Also of Note - the Current Secretary of the navy is a former Commanding Officer of teh Ship. I am not detailed familiar with Wikipedia requirements as to what is significant is reason I only add this to Talk page. Wfoj3 (talk) 16:58, 15 January 2022 (UTC)
 * If you're looking to add to the article that this was the first ship to visit NYC post 911, then yes you would need a source for that. Unfortunately, personal knowledge (eg: "I was there" or "A crew member told me") doesn't count. After your first post above, I added a ref for the date and location of commissioning. I then did a brief search for any article that mentioned this ship being the first to visit NYC after 911, but I didn’t find any. But good luck to you if wish to continue the search. If you find a source, but need any assistance adding it to the page, just post something here and I or another editor will help you. -  wolf  18:26, 15 January 2022 (UTC)
