Our second interview (and first video recorded interview - posted on Youtube) is with Mr. Bradley Angle. Bradley is a former Coastie, a fellow shipmate from the CHASE, and my best friend of 20 years. His insight and compassion for his fellow service members and their rights drive the conversation to places we weren’t expecting.
Enjoy the interview and please let me know if you have a question for either of us.
Also, Bradley wrote an excellent book which outlines the culture onboard the CHASE at the time. Please see the link below for a copy of his book as well as the books and articles we mentioned in the interview.
