We're incredibly excited to bring the talented @wa We're incredibly excited to bring the talented @warhippies to South Florida for an evening of live music, war stories with @alancmack2015 and roping competitions! This is an evening you won't want to miss at @alligatorronbergeron’s Saloon.

We are incredibly proud of our partnership with @s We are incredibly proud of our partnership with @spartan & @spartanrace . The willingness of @realjoedesena and SOTF fellow @kemar.ebanks to go above and beyond to ease the suffering of those in need is what this season is all about.
The @specopstf and @spartan teamed up to make an i The @specopstf and @spartan teamed up to make an impact and change lives this past weekend. 
On Dec 10th & 11th 2022 our Director of Programs, Austin Moore and our Director of Development, Bobby Payne had the unique opportunity to share the SOTF mission at the Central Florida Spartan trifecta and kids' world championship. When they weren't sharing the SOTF calling with over 12,000 Spartans they were out on the course seeing if they still got it. Over 25 miles logged, and 60 obstacles conquered. Not only did they earn some hardware, but they also shared some incredible time on the course with the founder, @realjoedesena. Joe is an amazing patriot that believes in our veterans and is an invaluable member of the SOTF family. Between miles in the mud, rope climbs, sandbag carries, and some penalty burpees, Austin and Bobby were able to talk strategy and make connections with some stellar business leaders who want to be a part of the SOTF Team. 
The weekend was highlighted and closed out with an Oscar Mic adaptive race where over 20 disabled veteran athletes competed and completed their very first race. Bobby and Austin were teamed with a blind Army veteran that had more heart and grit then they had ever seen. Three miles and three hours later they all jumped across the fire pit together to cross the victory line. "That was the highlight of my year and one of the most powerful moments of my life," said Bobby. 
 The SOTF family is full of great Americans that come from all walks of life. These patriots want to make a difference and realize that SOTF is a unique way to tap into elite veteran talent. The SOTF team will never stop sharing its mission, even if it requires some mud and blood. #military #veterans #spartanrace #spartan #leadership

The @specopstf (SOTF) would like to welcome Kerry The @specopstf (SOTF) would like to welcome Kerry Black to the team as Transition Coordinator supporting our program efforts under the direction of the Director of Programs to help strengthen and expand SOTF's program services to our Special Operators. As the Transition Coordinator, she will be responsible for mentorship coordination, networking preparation, and stewardship of veteran progress in the program in coordination with the Executive Coaching teams and Corporate Engagement team. 
Recently, Kerry transitioned to the Florida Panhandle. For over 20 years she lived in South Florida where she served her family and started and led several non-profit organizations with her husband, connecting current and future community leaders. For several years, she worked with several commanders from the 482d Fighter Wing and Special Operations Command South helping Airmen and Special Operations Forces to develop healthy, strong personal and professional relationships. During her last 3 ½ years in South Florida, Kerry led the @southdadecc as CEO where she, along with the board and staff, successfully transformed the chamber's vision, mission, and direction that ultimately created a robust pro-business culture in the entire South Dade region.
Welcome to the team, Kerry!
Thank you for the opportunity to speak at the ASCE Thank you for the opportunity to speak at the ASCENT Transition workshop. The Special Operators Transition Foundation is honored to help these elite service members make a successful transition from military service.

“The @specopstf has been instrumental in my successful transition from military service into the Private Sector. I am forever grateful for the SOTF Staff, Alumni, and Fellows for their steadfast support and relentless drive to ensure that all SOF operators don’t transition without a team. The expert mentorship, on time advice, dedication, on point feedback, and encouragement I constantly received from the entire SOTF team has been phenomenal .”, said Julio. 
Through SOTF mentorship, Julio accepted the position of Director, Procurement & Supply Chain Management at @cableone_tv. In his new role, he will provide support to our rural markets with the best broadband. 
 His advice for those looking to transition with SOTF is to, “own the process before the time comes. Take every experience with a positive mind as those experiences will make you stronger as individual, and a better leader. Take full advantage of the mentorship that is available to you, lean on the other Fellows and Alumni of the program, network, network, network, and don’t forget that everyone’s worth a cup of coffee and a phone call.”

This Nation sets aside November 11th as Veterans D This Nation sets aside November 11th as Veterans Day to honor all the men and women who have served in this great Nation’s military.  It was born out of recognition of the date that hostilities ended in World War I.  In the United States, this became the day celebrate all Veterans; those from generations past, those who have recently joined the Veteran ranks, and those currently serving this nation. 
The men and women of our military secured and are securing this Nation and our ideals in engagements across the globe.  From the Revolutionary War to operations to deter further Russian aggression in Europe today, Veterans have been there.  From wartime operations to disaster relief, they nave long formed the front line.  The United States has over 19 million living Veterans out of uniform and 1.4 million men and women still in uniform.  Of those, over 171,000 service members remain on the frontline deployed outside of the United States.  Let’s celebrate and honor them by listening to them and telling their stories to ensure their service is not forgotten. 
For those transitioning out of the military, our obligations are only beginning.  Taking care of them, and their families, is a responsibility we must hold sacred as a Nation.  Let’s honor our Veterans by making a commitment to work together to create new opportunities for them to contribute after their service.  In this way, they will continue making a difference in the world.  This is good for the Veterans, their families, their communities, and this Nation.  This takes a team.  Make the commitment to not just thank them for their service, but commit to making a difference in their lives. 
To all our veterans – thank you.  Thank you for everything you’ve done for our country and continue to do.  God bless you and your families, and happy Veterans Day. #veteransday #veteran #grateful

It's #militarytransition Tuesday! CW5 (R) Brett Ch It's #militarytransition Tuesday! CW5 (R) Brett Chivers started his 21+ year @usarmy career as an Army Aviator after having competed in two #Olympic games for the Guam National Sailing Team in 1996 & 2000. This drive and focus led him to an exceptional career as an Attack (AH-64) & Special Operations (MH-47) aviator with over 3600 flight hours, of which 2500+ were in combat. He's deployed eight times with over 42 months of combat throughout the globe in support of both conventional and special operations. He is proficient as a Project Manager with a PMP and Master's in Project Management, focusing on process improvement in small through large organizations. Brett has been awarded multiple awards for outstanding product development, professionalism, and operational performance. Brett enjoys sailing and camping with his wife, two daughters, a son, and large Newfoundland dogs and he lives by a philosophy of focusing on improving the path to success through excellence.
"As I entered into the transition process from active Army officer to leaving military service, there was a sense of aimlessness that gave way to uncertainty in the following path in life and career. The @specopstf offered an excellently tailored individual assessment and action plan to show me my value and the different opportunities I could capitalize on as a civilian. They not only helped translate my experience into non-military terms but also helped bring me the confidence to move forward in my dream career. I not only had multiple opportunities presented for career options but was also confident enough to see that I could go out on my own in business. I started a consulting firm with the confidence and support of SOTF and its team. The value SOTF brings to special operators as they leave service is invaluable, and the corporate world is missing out if they do not engage in seeking a SOTF fellow to be a part of their team!", said Brett. 
Please help us in congratulating him! #transition #army #aviator #specialops
