In this episode of the "Coast To Coasties" Podcast, I sit down for the first of a two part episode with CWO3 BOSN Matthew Fonville and discuss his legendary career in the United States Coast Guard. BOSN Fonville has sailed on polar security cutters, worked as a quarter master 3rd class when the rate still existed, and has been stationed in Patrol Forces Southwest Asia to list a few of the amazing accomplishments of his career. We cover all of these adventures and get in depth into what his job entailed being a Boatswains Mate at each of his duty stations throughout his time of service. We also discuss the process of how he went from Chief to Warrant Officer. This episode is jam packed with content and one you definitely are going to want to hear if you are interested in the Boatswain Mate rate or traveling around during your Coast Guard career!
