32. Navy Aircraft Technician and Maintenance Manager- Robert Armer

Nautical Knowledge and Nonsense

Robert Armer is the first person I have interviewed who has dedicated his adult life to a career in the US Navy. He is a gifted story teller and has had first hand experience with many changes in the US Navy over the past few decades. He got to see the ships transition from all-male crews to mixed gender crews, and he was also present when the Navy went from peacetime to wartime during the post 9-11 years. We only scratch the surface of his career and what he has experienced, but I found my brief time with him to be captivating. I hope to have more interviews with him in the future.
