I thought the NFL was the best experience...

I always thought playing in the NFL was the ultimate experience—until I stood on the flight deck of a U.S. Navy aircraft carrier. What I witnessed wasn’t just technical precision; it was a breathtaking display of teamwork, discipline, and trust. The coordination between people and machines, under pressure and in motion, was unlike anything I’d seen before. My time aboard that carrier reminded me that greatness comes in many forms—and sometimes, it looks like quiet professionalism on a rocking sea. Thrill of a lifetime. Thank you for the invite Capt.
