This year's ceremony had to be moved inside the Intrepid Museum due to the weather.
Following remarks by high-ranking officials, including Mayor Eric Adams, four ceremonial wreaths were placed in the Hudson River.
It's all to honor the men and women who made the ultimate sacrifice while serving in the United States armed services.
The ceremony concluded with veterans unfurling the American flag as taps played. However, a flyover by Navy fighter jets was canceled due to weather.
Fleet Week kicked off on Wednesday last week. It began with the Parade of Ships. Eleven ships in total navigated to the city and have been docked at piers 88, 90, and in Staten Island.
The public is invited to tour the ships and interact with thousands of sailors and Marines, who were spotted out in New York, taking in all of what the city has to offer, while in uniform and following strict curfews.
Fleet Week ends Tuesday as the ships pull out to sea.
