Invergorden, Scotland Invergorden is the home of 1500 people, the British Navy, and un- counted thousands of sheep. The har- bor is a British Naval training center, and training was the purpose of the McGowan ' s visit. Operations during three days, again, showed the realism of British exercises, and the import- ance of NATO inter-fleet maneuvers. Another bus tour visited the Scot- tish highlands, with more scenery (bottom). Unfortunately, the bus was not suited for mountainous driving and on most hills tlie customers walked (left).

Kiel, Germany ' ' i S ij Boat racing, color, and gaiety marked war-torn Kiel as the ship transited the Kiel Canal ( upper right and cen- ter). Kieler Woche was a pleasant experience for all concerned; a rifle team was organized to meet the chal- lenge of a local shooting club (bottom right). Hundreds of visitors each day kept the duty section busy (following page), and Mc- Gowan men hoped they came away with higher regard for the United States and its Navy.
