Trump officials join Chester’s Scanlon at Philly shipyard to christen new training vessel and tout U.S. shipbuilding revival

Trump administration officials joined U.S. Rep. Mary Gay Scanlon at the Hanwha Philly Shipyard to christen the T.S. Lone Star State, a new training vessel. The event highlighted efforts to revive the U.S. shipbuilding industry, including a contract for the U.S.S. Golden Defender, part of the Pentagon’s anti-missile defense system. Officials credited President Trump’s executive order 'Restoring America’s Maritime Dominance' for driving the renewed activity.
