OCALA, Fla. — Naval Air Station Jacksonville will conduct live and inert bomb training in the Ocala National Forest from Friday through Sunday, according to the fire department.

The training will take place at the Pinecastle Range Complex in the Ocala National Forest, which is about 2 miles west of Camp Ocala campgrounds and near several hiking trails.
According to the Southwest fire department, it is common for F-18 jet fighters and other Navy aircrafts to drop bombs in the middle of the range.
