Naturally if you are a Marine this magnetizes you, radioactivates your blood, and supercharges your soul, but even if you are not a Marine you can appreciate those who proudly call themselves Marines for life. A peek into who we are forever changed and forged by our life experiences. Semper Fi
What a fantastic event! Great vendors, products, manufacturers, displays, and vehicles! I know I had a great time meeting so many outdoor off-road enthusiasts. A lot of families, patriots, veterans, and young people. I enjoyed meeting all of them very much. I sure want to thank all the organizers for having me at the show. We are all lucky to have this expo here in Sandy every year. I witnesses a lot of hard work all coming together to put this event on. Bravo well done by all of you, and thanks to all those who came out to see the show.
Big Glory made a landing at America’s Coffee HQ. The visit turned into nothing less than a veterans rally! The Captain even lucked out and had a chance meeting with Evan Hafer, CEO Black Rifle Coffee!
The first encounter at BRC was with Bart or should I say, Master Sergeant Bart. Bart served us all and our nation for 38 years! First as a US Army soldier in logistics and later as a Medic. Bart served from 1983 to 2021, with tours in Iraq 2005/06, Korea, and Okinawa. That service was not enough so Bart served again with the Salt Lake City Police 1994-1997. That was not enough either so Bart served us again as a Utah State Trooper from 1997-2017. Wow, what a guy what a career he has had. If you meet him tell him I said Hi! Thank you for the warm welcome we will see you again so
