RMAN - Need for backing up archive logs

Hi

Let us assume that we make a FULL RMAN database plus archive log backup on SATURDAY (Oracle 10g R2)
we are using control file and NOT the CATALOG
Archive logs are located on a RAID volume '/u08' (log_archive_dest_1)
After the hot backup on SATURDAY, we did not backup the archive logs
The database crashes on TUESDAY and we have the hot backup from SATURDAY available

Now, when we start the recovery of the database using hot backup from SATURDAY, would RMAN automatically start applying the archive logs using "log_archive_dest_1"  and as long as the required archive logs are available in that location, the RMAN would successfully recover the database. Correct?

Howdy, Stranger!
