Filming of the Movie "THIRTEEN DAYS"
Common sights and operations during the cruise.

Click picture for a larger image:

JPK is towed under the Newport Bridge for another day of filming.	Looking up from underneath the bridge.
Not since 1973 has JPK operated in and around Newport.	Set the sea and Anchor detail. JPK DD850 gets ready to anchor off Newport under her own power. The only and first museum warship to ever have done so.
JPK rests at anchor with the Newport Bridge in the distance.	At sea with two "Russian" cargo ships. In the foreground is 850's ASROC launcher.
Follow the leader? JPK "escorts" the cargo ships out for filming.	Standing out of Newport once again.
Hold on pal !! JPK was taking some serious swells. The inclinometer on the Bridge read a max of 30 degrees at one point!
