Show Notes

Not often do we get to sit down and have candid conversations with our aviation senior leadership. In this episode, we were honored to talk with the Coast Guard's 26th Ancient Albatross, (or some might say Air Lord now!) RADM Melvin W. Bouboulis. As the current District 13 Commander and the Coast Guard's most senior aviator, RADM Bouboulis dives into aviation stories throughout his storied career, lends great advice to junior aviators, and discusses the future of CG aviation.

And lucky for everyone, Kenny and Sam were able to get through the episode without putting a foot in their mouth.

We plan to release shows on a bi-weekly basis. On Fridays of course!

Hosts: LCDR Kenny Ingram, LCDR Sam Hafensteiner

Producer/Creator: LT Ryan Vandehei

Technical Director & Editor: Chuck Seay
