  According to wikipedia, F215 in 1960 would have been: F215 Graf Spee (the former HMS Flamingo) (1959–67)

• Niall McAuley said:

  She was sold to the Federal Republic of Germany in 1959, where she was renamed "Graf Spee" and used as a cadet training ship... During her service she undertook a series of training trips abroad , often with her ​​sister ship "Hipper" they i.a. repeatedly resulted in American port cities , from Victoria ( British Columbia ) in the north to Valparaiso and to Cape Horn in the South Pacific .

  I think the building behind the bow of the ship is Ringsend Tech which we saw last week. www.flickr.com/photos/nlireland/30691019416/in/dateposted/
