I was adopted oldest of 2 in my adopted family and oldest of my side of the family my brother and sister, spent 8 years in the Army National Guard, 12 state active duty missions, 1 deployment
I almost became part of Mission 22, attempted twice after my second time my buddy who is part of Mission 22 sent me a video and in the video it was from Grunt Style called “The Spartan Pledge” and it says “I will not take my own life by my own hand until I talk to my battle buddy first, my Mission is to find a Mission to help my warfighter family” that and them talking about their PTSD and deployments and trama helped me realized I need to find my Mission and Purpose and after helping 2 vets in a row be here I called out to God and said “I hear yea” and last year in December a friend of mine in Australia wanted to give me a platform to talk about my teams in a safe place and she made Blackdog on Discord and unfortunately she went down the path of researching PTSD and trama from those of us who have seen War and she got a small case of PTSD and she couldn’t handle it so in January she handed over everything that had to do with BlackDog and unfortunately I wasn’t able to do much with it because I was in the middle of a horrible emotional domestic abuse relationship but on Veterans Day 2024 I put that aside and did a 24 mile ruck march to help raise awareness of Veteran and First Responder suicide, did it in 7 hours and now out of that relationship and I’ve been pushing hard on 2025 event on Veterans Day and im in a better mindset and relationship
