I found this photo online while searching flight suits and jump gear... Can anyone tell me what they're wearing? One piece suit (coverall?) or utility jacket and pants?

 

The photo is titled:

 

Roy Boehm, at far right, briefs SEAL Team Two as they prepare for the invasion of Cuba during the Cuban Missile Crisis. Photo from the Bill Goines Collection.

Try reaching out to Don Shipley. If you don't know who he is, he is a retired Senior Chief Petty Officer and SEAL. He investigates individuals who claim to have been SEALS and publicly admonishes them. He has a weekly podcast and he does other venues as well... 

 

He also has SEAL rosters for all the BUDs classes that have existed as well as rosters for those who were in UDT prior to SEALs activation.

 

Given the information in the photo he may have the names of who was in SEAL Team 2 in 1962..

 

Just a thought,, good luck with your search.

Leigh, thanks for the suggestion.  I’ll follow up on it.

 

I don’t necessarily need all their names, I am looking for one particular veteran from ST-2.
