An Avenger of VSQ 2 (ex US Navy 69392) landing on the carrier Karel Doorman during a cruise around the world in 1960. The date suggests the location should be off the South African coast. The Crazy Horse badge is a personal marking. The aircraft was scrapped in January 1961, soon after this journey.
