Gemma and Ian chat to Bobbie Scholley.  Bobbie served in the U.S. Navy as a Diving and Salvage Officer for 24 years, holding leadership roles in many navy diving operations including the 1996 recovery of TWA Flight 800 off the coast of Long Island, NY, the 2000 bombing recovery of the USS COLE in Aden, Yemen, and USS MONITOR Expeditions 2001 and 2002 off the coast of Hatteras, NC. She was the fourth women to have command of a US Navy ship and the first women to command a US Navy Mobile and Diving Salvage Unit.

After completing her naval service, Bobbie turned her focus to non-profit opportunities, concentrating on work associated with veteran groups and education. She was inducted into the Women Divers Hall of Fame (WDHOF) in 2000 and held positions as President and Chairman of the Board, actively supporting their mission of mentoring new divers. Bobbie was a member of the Board of Directors of the Navy Diver Foundation, helping to ensure veteran navy divers were recognized and cared for.

Bobbie is a seasoned speaker and is routinely called upon to provide her expertise for breaking news interviews, seminars, presentations, and panels.
