Man, the Navy had some cheesy films in the 70s. 

Note that while the living accommodations are much nicer than WWII built ships, they're still very spartan compared to today's fleet.

Also, as an interesting coincidence, both URR, I, and frequent commenter/occasional contributor Esli's wife have all been aboard the same Knox class frigate, USS Miller, FF-1091, sister ship to USS Lockwood shown here.

 If you were watching closely, during the gunnery exercise, you might have  spotted a two second shot of a guy moving a pedestal mount with handlebars, and what looked like steel drums on either side. 

That has nothing to do with gunnery, but is in fact the first generation director for the Sea Sparrow Basic Point Defense Missile System mounted on the fantail. Yes, the first generation guidance system had no automatic tracking, and instead relied on a sailor simply pointing the radars at the missile visually.
