Lorne Green

Chief Aviation Electrical Technician Lorne Green joined the Navy in 2006 because he wanted to prove himself to a higher standard. His father, mother, and stepfather were all in the military and he felt like he had something to offer, too. He wasn’t sure what he wanted to do right away, but his Navy career allowed him time to explore his options. He worked on various military aircraft throughout the years including the FA-18 Hornet and Super Hornet, the C-2 Greyhound, and the V-22 Osprey. He’s done seven carrier deployments and a humanitarian tour in Japan. He helped save lives on the flight deck and mentored new maintainers as an instructor for avionics. After his illness and injury, the same drive that initially brought him into the Navy led him to adaptive sports. He wanted to prove himself again. “Navy Wounded Warrior has opened more opportunities to find my place again after my time with the Navy closes. The help I’ve received is remarkable and keep me moving to the next chapter. These new avenues opened to me, allowing me to express myself and be stronger in my life after service.” In his free time, Green likes to hike, camp, and ski, as well as play e-sports.
