Bar, Serbia and Montenegro (Dec. 15, 2003) -- A tug boat assists the
U.S. Navy guided missile destroyer USS Gonzalez (DDG 66) into port,
marking the first visit by a U.S. Navy ship since the establishment of
the Union of Serbia and Montenegro in February this 2003. The
visit underscores the United States' commitment to Serbia and
Montenegro's progress toward membership in the European community of
nations as a free, democratic country. The visit also
recognizes
the established cooperation between the United States and Serbia and
Montenegro in the effort to foster future support with the ongoing
international war on terrorism. U.S. Navy photo by
