From his small-town origins in Selene, Michigan, to the vast oceanic expanses aboard the USS Indiana, Drake's voyage is a testament to his resilience and a beacon for those daring to take the helm of their own journey. Walk the deck with us as we explore his initial struggles with academia, the transformative call from a Navy recruiter, and the intense training he endured to qualify to work in a nuclear power plant on a Navy submarine.
Lend your ears as Drake illuminates the reality of life aboard a cutting-edge submarine, the USS Indiana SSN-789. Soak in the unique experiences - the strenuous sea trials, the unforgettable trip to the Bahamas, and the honor of being a plank owner of the Indiana.
