VF-13 Night Cappers

On 2 July 1964, Fighter Squadron One Three, the last Atlantic Fleet F-3 Demon squadron, completed transition to the F-8E at NAS Cecil Field, Florida. Two years later the squadron transitioned to the F-8D, and continued this "backward evolution" by transitioning to the F-8C in 1967! The squadron traded in their aircraft once again when they received F-8H's in 1968 for their final cruise. Disestablished on 1 October 1969.
