Naval Air Station Jacksonville was commissioned on October 15; 1940; and has trained tens of thousands of naval aviators throughout its long history. Located along the banks of the St. Johns River; the site and the weather conditions make the base a premier aviation facility. Initially conducting primary and sea-plane training; it expanded to training pilots in almost every type of aircraft the Navy has flown. The Navy’s elite precision aviators; the Blue Angels; were formed at the base in 1946. Today; as a master antisubmarine base; it remains home to 15 aviation squadrons; some 115 tenant commands and almost 20;000 military; civilian; and contract employees work at the station daily.
