Boxer VF-721 was a US Navy Reserve unit based at NAS Glenview, IL, that was called up to serve in the summer of 1950. After transitioning to the new F9F-2 Panther jets, the unit was assigned to the U.S.S. Boxer. The squadron was off the coast of Korea for a year, supporting ground troops fighting the Communist forces. They flew many sorties and destroyed countless trucks, locomotives and rail cars, bridges, buildings and enemy armor, as well as attacking troop concentrations.
