Warbirds in the Jacksonville, Florida area?

I'm spending some time in Jacksonville, Florida and I'm trying to recollect if there are any warbirds, collections, etc in or near the area. Any clues?

Dale Snodgrass keeps the "Skyblazers" F-86 Sabre at St. Augustine which is just south of Jax... Also not sure which airport in Jax , but Dave Marco has the P-51D "Sizzlin Liz" up there...

There are some Navy planes on display at the entrance to Naval Air Station Jacksonville. They are inside the fence, and you will need to go thru security to see them, but I haven't been to NAS JAX in a while, so don't know how tight that might be.

There's a PBY-5A, a P3, a P2V, and some others I can't recall at the moment.
