St. Mary's County. The work that many of our residents perform <br />
in support of Navy projects is not always discussed publicly. I <br />
have pulled some highlights (see below) of a story by: Nidhi <br />
Subbaraman, NBC News and I will provide a link to the full story <br />
at the end of this article.<br />
The U.S. Navy's X-47B drone has become the first unmanned craft <br />
to complete a catapult launch from the flight deck of an <br />
aircraft carrier. Today's demonstration took place on the USS <br />
George H.W. Bush, off the coast of Virginia. <br />
