Aviation Structural Mechanic 1st Class Jared Mann,

Aviation Structural Mechanic 1st Class Jared Mann, from Deerfield, Kan., assigned to the U.S. Navy flight demonstration squadron, the Blue Angels, answers questions from youngsters at a local bookstore in Pensacola, Fla., having just read a children''s book to them during the store's weekly children's story time event. The Blue Angels have called Pensacola home since 1954, and although budget cuts have forced the cancellation of 2013 air shows and practice demonstrations, the team is still committed to their mission of enhancing Navy recruiting, and representing Navy and Marine Corps aviation in their local community.
