VMF helps Jacksonville students celebrate Transportation Week

The North Florida District Jacksonville Vehicle Maintenance Facility held its fourth annual Vehicle Fair recently, this year at Jacksonville's Love Grove Elementary School. 

The district was acknowledging National Defense Transportation Week (May 12-18) as proclaimed by President Obama.

The President called upon all Americans to recognize the importance of our nation's transportation infrastructure and to recognize the contributions of those who build, operate, and maintain it.

Vehicle Auto Mechanic Dan Camacho spoke with Love Grove students about how he keeps the mail moving by servicing the Postal fleet.

“It is important for the kids to know that transportation gets them to and from school. It also allows them to see a different area of Postal Service and how it plays an important role to keep the mail moving," said Camacho.

Camacho was well prepared with a vehicle tour of an LLV and USPS gifts for the students.
