For the first time ever, I am being interviewed by my good friend Robert Kromberg. He is a fellow Marine Corps veteran, the Director Of Operations for the nonprofit Recycle For Veterans, and this is his third time on the show. We discuss what it was like for me in high school leading up to joining the military, the training required to qualify as a Marine aviator, and my experiences fixing and flying in helicopters. I hope this is interesting for anyone curious about military aviation. Thanks for listening to the longest Existence podcast episode yet!
