#14 Brian Penfold - Route to Success
The first episode of our four-part interview with retired Lieutenant Colonel Brian Penfold, whose Army career spanned nearly four decades and saw him become one of the most “trained” officers in the Royal Electrical and Mechanical Engineers (REME). Brian talks us through his career, from joining the Army and learning the importance of teamwork and seizing opportunity, through to transferring to the Army Air Corps and applying to become a pilot. Along the way, Brian has overcome disappointment and failure, and we hear how he reflects on these setbacks and how to use these moments to succeed in the future.
