The Mine Countermeasures (MCM) group paid a visit to the port of Ghent. The commanding officers were personally welcomed by the Port Captain Dirk Vernaeve. The MCM vessels in return held ´open ship´ to give the inhabitants of Ghent the opportunity to board the vessels and learn about the Navy life first hand. To conclude the weekend a large fire exercise was held. During the exercise the civilian emergency services and ship's crews worked closely together to extinguish the exercise fire. On Monday morning the ships left for sea after a very successful weekend.
