- VFP-62 abstract "Light Photographic Squadron 62 (VFP-62) was an aviation unit of the United States Navy in service from 1949 to 1968. The squadron provided a detachment of reconnaissance planes for each of the Carrier Air Wings of the U.S. Atlantic Fleet.VFP-62 was established in January 1949 as Composite Squadron VC-62 Fighting Photos and was equipped with Grumman F8F-2P Bearcat and Vought F4U-5P Corsair reconnaissance planes. The first detachment was assigned to Carrier Air Group 7 (CVG-7) aboard the aircraft carrier USS Leyte (CV-32) from September 1949 to January 1950 for a deployment to the Mediterranean Sea.Detachments of the squadron operated from all attack carriers based on the U.S. East Coast. Only from September 1950 to February 1951 a detachment operated during the Korean War from the USS Leyte as part of CVG-3.In 1951 the squadron was equipped with the McDonnell F2H-2P Banshee. On 2 July 1956 the squadron was redesignated Photographic Reconnaissance Squadron 62 (VFP-62) and transitioned to the Grumman F9F-6P Cougar (later F9F-8P). Renamed Light Photographic Squadron 62 (VFP-62), the squadron received its first Vought F8U-1P Crusader aircraft three years later, which were redesignated RF-8A in 1962. In 1966, these aircraft were upgraded to a new standard designated as the RF-8G.VFP-62 is best known as the squadron who took the first low-level photos of the Soviet missile bases in Cuba during the Cuban Missile Crisis in October 1962. At the time, it was commanded by US Navy Commander William Ecker. In 2000, the movie Thirteen Days (film), produced by Kevin Costner, showed the actions of Ecker and the other members of VFP-62 during the Missile Crisis.From June 1966 to February 1967 VFP-62 Det.42 operated from the USS Franklin D. Roosevelt (CVA-42) off Vietnam as part of CVW-1.VFP-62 was disestablished on 1 January 1968.".
