Today's guest is the enthusiastic and fun Heather M. Haley of the US Naval History and Heritage Command. A PhD from Auburn, Heather is a scholar of LGBTQ+ in the American military. In addition to several publications with the Naval History and Heritage Command, Heather is the author of Queer in the Cold War: The Civil-Military Battle over the Lavender Scare, which is forthcoming from Cornel University Press. If you've been to recent Society for Military History conferences, you'll have seen Heather, who is very active in the SMH.

We'll talk career serendipity, imposter syndrome, cats, Badger Killers, Bob's Burgers, and much more. Enjoy!

Shoutout to Rudy's BBQ!
