CUBA-1962: A vintage 8mm home movie captures U.S. Navy fighter jets on an aircraft carrier deck during the Cuban Missile Crisis. The grainy, sun-drenched footage shows jetliners marked with U.S. military insignia, including tail numbers like 925 and 202, being prepared for launch. Crew members in period uniforms move around the aircraft as smoke trails from engines. The final frames show the carrier at sea, with the flight deck extending into the horizon, offering a rare glimpse of Cold War naval operations from a personal perspective.
