This must be the week of the silent service for me! After covering the opening of a significant NATO submarine exercise, I now get to interview a young lady whose career is hunting and tracking submarines. She’s also the first in so many arenas. You don’t want to miss this great conversation with an outstanding naval officer.

LT Andrea Howard is the first and only officer in the submarine community to oversee the integration of two submarines with junior enlisted women, including the only fully integrated Virginia-class fast attack. She is the senior openly queer woman in the submarine force and the first female Officer to win two L.Y. Spear awards, achieving the top tactical performance at the Submarine Officer Basic Course and Submarine Officer Advanced Course.

Andrea is also a co-founder of the Submarine Officer Women’s Network, which has connected over 270 submarine officers.
