Welcome aboard Flight 91 of the Squawk Ident podcast - Leadership Persistence.

On today’s flight Rob D. & Captain Roger join us. , We are excited to hear all about Roger's recent jet-setting adventure. We also discuss how President Biden has tapped a retired airline captain to lead the U.S. Mission to the International Civil Aviation Organization.

The Squawk Ident crew & I also have the honor in speaking with an aviator who’s journey is nothing shy of spectacular. He holds an MBA in Information Systems Management, a Masters in Military Arts and Sciences, and International Relations, to name just a few of his incredible list of academic achievements. Not too long ago, he was the Commander of the 62nd Operations Group, at joint bases Lewis & McCord, in Washington. That is where he ensured the combat readiness of approximately 700 active duty military and civilian personnel, in four squadrons, operating 48 - C-17A Globemaster III aircraft.

From his service to our country as an Air Force Commander to his experiences as a civilian 737 pilot at “Domestic Air”, Colonel Mark Fuhrmann will share his journey in aviation with us.
