Location: Gettysburg PA / NYC.
Date: August 1963.
Originals: Kodachrome 35mm slides, developed late 1963.
Digitized 8/24/08 with Nikon Coolscan 5000 scanner: 5782 x 3946, TIFF output, 16 bit depth.
From PNN Cavalcade tray #S1, 1963; ERN label: "S. leaving on AFS - NY / Kongiswinter", SAN label: "AFS 9/63 / Gettysburg, NYC, Rotterdam, Koeln, Konigswinter, Bonn".

These slides were developed in Germany, not in US, so the slide mounts are not datestamped. SAN wrote Roman numerals I ... XII on slide mounts, of his Germany slides to indicate each separate roll of film, so it would be straightforward to rearrange them into purely chronological order.
