Members of the Marines and Navy say they are thrilled and thankful New York City is so welcoming during Fleet Week. NickJCaloway has the story from the Crossroads of the World.
After a pandemic pause, Fleet Week is back, and you couldn't ask for better weather. It's a great way to meet and thank members of the U.S. Navy, Marine Corps and Coast Guard.
"It makes me feel confident in the American - it's a show of force, I guess. You know what I'm saying," one person said. Some tourists from out of the country were loving it. From public ship tours to aviation demonstrations, military band performances and interactive displays - there's even some antique military vehicles.
"This is my first time in New York, so just to be able to come here in my uniform and represent the Marine Corps, I'm really honored," said Marine Sgt. Daniel Gadia.
