A slightly distant port near broadside view, taken from just ahead of the beam, of the Royal Navy guided missile destroyer Kent (1961) under way during exercise Sally Forth in the North Sea off the Firth of Forth. Her pendant number is D12 and the lattice mast of a Tribal class frigate can be seen beyond the Kent's after funnel. The stern of the guided missile destroyer Fife (1964) is on the left. The photographer is on board the guided missile destroyer Bristol (1969) and a leading stoker mechanic is in the left foreground.
