Call mvn war:war automatically on mvn package but output JAR as well

I'm new to maven and I am using the maven war plugin to generate a WAR file for my project.

mvn war:war

But I would like this to be done automatically when I run 

mvn package

How do I modify pom.xml to do this?

EDIT:

To clarify, I still want a JAR file as well as the WAR file. I am currently building a JAR with dependencies using 

<packaging>jar</packaging>

and

  <plugin>
    <artifactId>maven-assembly-plugin</artifactId>
    <configuration>
      <archive>
        <manifest>
          <mainClass>com.fb.Main</mainClass>
        </manifest>
      </archive>
      <descriptorRefs>
        <descriptorRef>jar-with-dependencies</descriptorRef>
      </descriptorRefs>
    </configuration>
    <executions>
      <execution>
        <id>make-assembly</id> <!-- this is used for inheritance merges -->
        <phase>package</phase> <!-- bind to the packaging phase -->
        <goals>
          <goal>single</goal>
        </goals>
      </execution>
    </executions>
  </plugin>

Put "war" packaging at the beginning of your pom.xml. Then add the following to your build section.

<build>
 <plugins>
   <plugin>
    <groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId>
    <artifactId>maven-jar-plugin</artifactId>
   <executions>
    <execution>
    <id>make-a-jar</id>
    <phase>compile</phase>
    <goals>
     <goal>jar</goal>
    </goals>
   </execution>
  </executions>
 </plugin>
</plugins>
</build>
