F-8

I was fortunate enough to fly the F-8 Crusader with VMF-334 at MCAS El Toro in 1965-1966. I flew it again 1967-1968 with VMF-333 at MCAS Beaufort. The Crusader was magnificent to fly, highly maneuverable. I got my 1,000 MPH pin in the Crusader. She was my first single-seat afterburning fighter.
