Stetson 8th-grader Interviews Retired Naval Captain
In honor of Veteran's Day, Stetson Middle School 8th-grader, CJ McCune sat down with U.S. Navy pilot, Brian Burlingame. During Captian Burlingame's extensive 20-year career as a pilot for the United States Navy, he flew combat missions in Kosovo and Desert Storm; was commanding officer for Patrol Squadron ONE at Whidbey Island, Washington, leading a diverse workforce of over 300 personnel with worldwide national security responsibilities; and worked as the chief operating officer for the United States Naval Academy. Captain Burlingame is the founder of BlueStar Ventures, a federal- and state-recognized Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Business (SDVOB). BlueStar works with commercial firms and properties to reduce the overall kWh consumption by upwards of 25% without affecting operations.
