New YorK:
Each year, the Museum hosts its Memorial Day Ceremony on the pier. Its tradition is to lay four wreaths on the Hudson—for U.S. military lost in current conflicts, for U.S. military lost in previous wars, for military of allied nations, and for former crew members of Intrepid.
During the ship’s service in World War II, the Cold War and the Vietnam War, over 270 crew members lost their lives. The Museum honors their service—on Memorial Day and all year—by preserving the history of the ship and their contributions to it
