Does crypttab/luks support reading the key from a USB drive?

I'm rather new to this so please forgive me if this is documented somewhere.

I've been looking into using LUKS to encrypt my disk.  However, I don't
want it to prompt me for a password.  Instead, I want it to read a key off
of a removable USB stick.  Unfortunately, all the documentation I've found
is based around entering a password.

Can crypttab/luks be configured to read the key off a removable USB stick
instead of having a user-entered password?  If so, how would I setup such
a configuration.

Thanks.
