[MilCom] Jacksonville Area MilCom; 15 June 2020

[Mac McCormick III]

During a trip to Jacksonville, FL earlier this week, I had the opportunity
to monitor MilCom activity from NAS Jacksonville, NS Mayport, NSB Kings
Bay, Grumman at St Augustine, and the surrounding area. From what I've been
told, the Army helicopters that I heard with Jax TRACON and going into
Craig Airport were arriving to be loaded onto a ship at JaxPort.
