As far as who I am: retired Force Recon Marine and combat veteran of 20 years of service in the United States Marine Corps. I started as a Marine Infantryman and then took selection for 1st Force Recon after 2 deployments to Iraq. I have since, in those 17 years deployed to Iraq, across southeast Asia, eastern Europe, and points in between.

Since retiring from the Marine Corps I have been working as an instructor for marksmanship and CQB for select members of the USCG, as a Primary Instructor for Orion Training Group, and teaching locally in NC through my company.

I believe firmly in the US Constitution and our unalienable rights.

All are welcome. Stay dangerous 💀
