HAVELOCK, N.C. — Fighter jets are everywhere, and that’s before you look to the sky. There’s one on the city seal, a Harrier arrayed before eight American flags, displayed on the welcome signs outside town. There’s one life-sized version on a pedestal outside city hall, and another outside a local hotel, still another outside the main gate to Marine Corps Air Station Cherry Point.
