His military responsibilities included sonar operations, technical maintenance, quality assurance and leadership in mission-critical environments.
During an assignment at Naval Weapons Station Yorktown, he served in a leading petty officer capacity overseeing torpedo-related operations. His Navy experience also included specialized submarine and diver-support work requiring strict adherence to technical, cleanliness and safety standards.
Among his notable technical accomplishments, Mr. Balmer prepared 158 quality assurance packages associated with complex submarine support procedures, including work related to diver safety and operational readiness.
