    Randy joined the army after 9/11 at the age of 33. He served 6 years and earned the right to wear the Green Beret. In 2006, he was critically injured by an EFP, resulting in 22% of his body having 3rd degree burns and left leg ampuation. Randy has been a mentor for other veterans for the past two decades working for USSOCOM Care Coalition, Green Beret Foundation, and the Adaptive Training Foundation.
