USS Perry during the Cuban Missle Crisis
During the Cuban Missle Crisis of October 1962 the Perry was active in the blocade of Russian Ships entering Cuban ports. All hands were at their general quarters stations. Some essential personnel were armed with the intention of boarding Russian Ships. Radiation monitors were issued to each crew member. After the crisis was resolved the Perry was deployed to the Med. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 69.95.62.19 (talk) 14:07, 3 July 2011 (UTC)
