4th Fleet Coming to Mayport

Rich Jones, News Director

WOKV has confirmed through the city's office of military affairs that the Navy is announcing the re-establishment of the 4th Fleet at Mayport.

We're not getting any ships, and just a handful of new people, but the announcement raises the profile of Naval Station Mayport.

The 4th Fleet was shelved back in the 50's but is being brought back to patrol the Atlantic region and South America.

We're expecting to learn more about the 4th Fleet during a news conference at 2:30pm today.
