Dave began his career as a cadet-midshipman serving on ocean-going break bulk cargo ships, a container ship and the flagship of the US fleet, the passenger liner SS United States. After winning his USCG licenses as 3rd Mate - Oceans and 3rd Engineer - Unlimited Horsepower, he served on three civilian oceanographic research vessels and a research submarine with active duty naval service at sea on a destroyer, a destroyer escort and ashore at the Naval Undersea Center, San Diego.
Dave, a retired U. S. Naval Reserve officer who served during the Vietnam-era, would relish the opportunity to serve his country again, to leverage his vast experience and knowledge of the world to better serve the people of North Florida as the U.S. Congressman from Florida’s 6th District. [1]
