Andy "Grand" Mariner is interviewed by Jamy Bechler during the official book launch party for "The Captain". Commander Mariner was formerly a commanding officer at TOPGUN and is now Deputy Commander of the historic Carrier Air Wing 11. He is stationed at Naval Air Station LeMoore.

Mariner helped Bechler with many of the aspects in "The Captain", which is his 4th book. "The Captain" is the story about a star quarterback turned hotshot fighter pilot. Despite always having talent, status, and power, the pilot finally comes to understand what REAL leadership looks like after a training accident.
