VP-16 Public Affairs Officer
The “War Eagles” of VP-16 recently hosted more than 90 seventh and eighth grade students and teachers from Sacred Heart Catholic School in Jacksonville. During the visit, students had the opportunity to see the inner workings of an operational Navy maritime patrol squadron.
Lt. Cmdr. Mike Trumbull started the day off by explaining the mission of the P-8A Poseidon, and what makes it such an effective aircraft.
