For the record nobody is thumbing their nose at the Navy....The issue is the Airport Commission not going through the proper channels to to revoke the permit. The Navy is actually being used as a pawn by the Airport Commission in order to achieve a different goal. There is a lot of back door dirty southeast Georgia politics going on that if you have never experienced is quite different than how things work in the rest of the world.
Just remember that there are two sided to every story and somewhere in the middle lies the truth. THe spin form the paper is that the Navy is upset, and they are perturbed, but they also have supported the drop zone and it's presence at the airport in the past.
