Summary
PORTLAND, Ore. (Jun. 08, 2012) Guests walk the pier at Tom McCall Waterfront Park to participate in public tours aboard the guided-missile destroyers USS William P. Lawrence (DDG 110) and USS Dewey (DDG 105) during Fleet Week in Portland, Ore., to celebrate the 105th annual Portland Rose Festival.
