Governor Ron DeSantis Presides Over Naval Station Mayport Change of Command Ceremony

Posted on July 26, 2019

Governor Ron DeSantis today presided over Naval Station Mayport’s Change of Command Ceremony. The ceremony represents the formal transition of authority and command from outgoing Commander, Captain David Yoder, to incoming Commander, Captain Jason Canfield.

“Captain Canfield brings a wealth of knowledge and experience including multiple tours abroad and has deployed in support of every numbered fleet across the globe in support of numerous operations,” said Governor DeSantis. “Captain Yoder is leaving Mayport in great hands and I’m confident Captain Canfield will serve and lead with distinction in his new role as Commander.”
