U.S. Navy photo of an RF-8G Crusader in flight

This U.S. Navy photo shows the PCAM RF-8G Crusader in flight. Ours served with Navy reconnaissance squadron VFP-62 during the Cuban Missile Crisis of 1962. VFP-62 conducted daring low-level reconnaissance missions over Cuba during the Crisis, and took photos vital to confirming the installation of Soviet missiles in Cuba and their later removal.
