Operation Sundown: COMCAM Disestablishment
Fleet Combat Camera Pacific
Sept. 21, 2018 | 8:17
Fleet Combat Camera Pacific, first known as Pacific Fleet Combat Camera Group, was established in 1951. Three years after the outbreak of the Korean War, Cmdr. Frederick A. Spencer, a former combat photographer, was ordered to active duty and told to “form and direct combat photo crews.” From combat in Korea, Vietnam, Iraq, and Afghanistan, to humanitarian aid missions, multi-national exercises, NASA operations, joint-special operational forces documentation, aerial and underwater imagery gathering, Combat Camera Sailors have documented history, providing the Fleet, U.S. Armed Forces, and the public with the highest level of imagery of worldwide events. Trained in advanced photography, video techniques and combat tactics, combat cameramen were ready to deploy worldwide for any situation at a moment’s notice. After more than 50 years, Combat Camera disestablished September 30, 2018, ending a legacy of excellence. (U.S. Navy Combat Camera video by Mass Communication Specialist 1st Class Benjamin A. Lewis)
