“First Season a Success, Co-Founder Says”

Published on January 22nd, 2010

Bob Freeman works in the Office of the Oceanographer of the Navy and is one of the founding members of Armed with Science.

“In its first year, the Armed with Science webcast succeeded beyond expectations. The credit goes to the scientists, administrators and operators who spent time discussing with us the broad range of scientific work sponsored by the Department of Defense. Much of the credit also goes to the dedication and enthusiasm of Dr. John Ohab, along with a small band of supporters.
