 Aviation leaders and aircrew men attended the annual Naval Helicopter Association Symposium in San Diego to discuss topics affecting the fleet, including the deployment of unmanned aerial vehicles in naval vessels. It's an opportunity for the helicopter community to meet annually that come together in this conference to talk about the past, the present, and the future of helicopter naval operations, which is very exciting. The theme for this year is Ready Warfighters, the employment of rotary wing strike capabilities. This is a great time to be a naval aviator, to be a naval air crewman. I can't think of a time in our history when the relevance of the helicopter community has been more prevalent than it is today. From San Diego, I'm Patty Officer, Claireford.
