Possessing an exquisite mammalian dive reflex, Cmdr. Fernandez is able to slow her heart rate to undetectable levels and navigate darkness, ice, and deep sea defense systems. She excels in her human aquatic potential and her skill as an elite marksman and soldier. 'Goggles' earned her nickname when a bullet struck her left eye—or would have—if it weren't for 'Wet Sox' reminding her to grab her full kit 'for the last time!' Despite her occasional forgetfulness, Cmdr. Fernandez is one of two elite combat diver SEALs to be awarded The Navy Cross for classified underwater operations. Be still my beating heart.
