Re: LtCdr ES McCuskey during and after VF-8
It's not easy to find material about VF8, but I think that McCuskey was with the squadron from its formation in 1943 until the end of the Bunker Hill cruise. The X.O. at this time was LtCdr R.W. Hoel so it likely that McCuskey was Flight Officer (#3), with collateral duty as tactics officer. He was not with VF8 when it reformed in January 1945 under LtCdr P.D. Duke.
