Great interview! I met Commander McWherter in an air show and words are not enough to describe how inspiring it is to meet a most outstanding leader like him.

Thanks very much, Commander McWherther, and to all our men and women in uniform, for your work, dedication, and for inspiring excellence in all of us.
