The panel features an impressive lineup of high-ranking speakers with military and literary backgrounds, including:
Keynote speaker: Retired U.S. Secretary of the Navy, Ray Mabus Jr.
Featured panelists: Retired rear admiral Edward “Sonny” Masso, U.S. Navy; baseball author Luke Epplin; Yogi Berra’s eldest son Larry Berra.
