Employee Spotlight: Robert Montgomery 


Property Disposal Specialist 
DLA Disposition Services at Norfolk, Virginia 

Tell me a little about yourself. My hometown is Seattle, Washington, but I am in Virginia now. My wife and I have been married for 15 years now, we have a 14-year-old and a child on the way. We have two dogs. I love to hunt and fish. I have a track car that I take out to Virginia International Raceway a couple times a year and have fun.
