JACKSONVILLE, Fla. — Three MH-60R helicopter squadrons that evacuated Jacksonville due to Hurricane Dorian have arrived back at Naval Air Jacksonville, the U.S. Navy said.
Naval Air Force Atlantic ordered that aircraft at the naval base leave the area ahead of the storm because of the potential for high winds and heavy rains.
The helicopters flew to Maxwell Air Force Base in Alabama until the hurricane passed through the First Coast. They arrived back safely at Naval Air Jacksonville on Thursday afternoon.
