From all of us at the Special Operators Transition

From all of us at the Special Operators Transition Foundation, we wish you and your family a very happy and safe 4th of July!
Independence Day is the most important day in our country's history and celebrates the journey we started in 1776 to be a free and independent country. The efforts of those bold Patriots and their sacrifices broke the chains that allowed us to become a free and separate Nation unlike any other in the world. A free Nation with ideals we continue to aspire and work towards; a Nation where everyone is respected regardless of their race, religion, sex or creed. Let each of us make a promise that we will work to ensure the ideals of the Declaration of Independence and our Constitution to allow our Nation to grow better with each passing day. Make a gift of $20 in honor of Independence Day, and show your gratitude to these Patriots who have been a part of America's story of independence. The dollars you donate directly help our Special Operators with transition coaching, mentor and networking that are critical to their transition. Text SOTF to 41444 to donate $20 #4thofjuly #independenceday #america

It's #transitionTuesday! Born and raised in Vienna

It's #transitionTuesday! Born and raised in Vienna, Virginia, Alex Doumas finished his undergraduate degree in Finance at @virginia.tech in 2009 and went to work at Freddie Mac in Mclean, VA. After 4 years of working in operational risk management he chose to enlist in the @usarmy and volunteered to try out for Special Forces. Alex was trained in trauma and clinical medicine as a special operations medic and in reconnaissance as a sniper. He was a graduate of the Military Free Fall course and completed two tours to Syria as a #GreenBeret in support of OIR. Alex was recommended by a teammate to reach out to the Special Operations Transition Foundation to assist in his transition. There he found guidance to refine the vision of his next steps. He is excited to use the lessons he learned as a Green Beret to drive towards success in the next chapter of his life. We’re happy to announce that chapter starts now as Alex has accepted a position as a Project Manager at @resourcive! Congratulations, Alex, we are thrilled for you 🇺🇸

It's #Transition Tuesday! Sorin Portase was born i

It's #Transition Tuesday! Sorin Portase was born in Romania and immigrated with his parents to the United States. Sorin knew from an early age that he wanted to join the @usarmy and decided to pursue a commission through the @westpoint_usma . He graduated from West Point in 2010 with a Bachelor of Science in Operations Research and commissioned as an Engineer Officer. After completing Officer Basic Course, Sorin was stationed at Fort Drum, NY with the @fd10thmtn, United States Army. He deployed twice to Afghanistan serving as Platoon Leader, Executive Officer, and Operations Planner. He decided to pursue a career in Special Forces and graduated the qualification course in 2016. He served as a Detachment Commander in @tenthsfg where he deployed for a third time to Afghanistan. Sorin will be separating from the military after ten years of service. "Deciding to work with SOTF was the best decision I made for my transition. SOTF's approach to capitalizing on its resources to develop a customized platform for each veteran was a huge component of my ability to translate ten years of service as I prepared to join the civilian sector." said Sorin. We’re happy to announce that Sorin has accepted a position at the @statedept.

It's #TransitionTuesday! Growing up on a cotton farm near Lubbock, #Texas, Cole Morrison learned the value of hard work that would help him achieve goals throughout his life and career. He attended @westpoint_usma and graduated in 2010 with a Bachelor’s Degree in Systems Engineering. After serving as an Armor Lieutenant, he was selected to attend the Special Forces Qualification Course at Fort Bragg, and eventually earned his Green Beret as an MOS 18A Special Forces Commander. With five deployments to Iraq and Syria in a Command position, from Platoon Leader to Special Forces Operational Detachment-Alpha Commander to Special Forces Support Company Commander, Cole gained experience in solving ever-changing complex problems, and more importantly, building teams and units that could operate successfully in ambiguous environments. We are happy to announce Cole has joined @titusindustrial as their Director of Global Logistics, where he looks forward to applying his skills in the private sector. Congratulations, Cole, we're thrilled for you and your family! 🇺🇸

It's #transitiontuesday! Upon graduating from @lew

It's #transitiontuesday! Upon graduating from @lewisuniversity Dorian Oleksak started off his military career as an Infantry Officer in the historic @1st_infantry_div. Following a deployment as an Infantry Platoon Leader in #Afghanistan, Dorian continued to test his potential by being a candidate at the United States Army Special Forces Qualification Course. Upon earning the Green Beret, Dorian was assigned to 2nd Battalion, @tenthsfg Special Forces Group (Airborne). As a Detachment Commander, Dorian had the humbling privilege of leading Special Forces Operational Detachment-Alpha (SFOD-A) 0*** to 2x deployments to Afghanistan in support of Resolute Support Mission. Dorian reached out to Special Operators Transition Foundation (SOTF) 8 months before separating from Active Duty, where he met devoted coaches who assisted him on self-discovery, and mentors who helped him translate operator skillsets into the civilian sector. During the COVID-19 National Emergency, SOTF continued to prepare and coach Dorian throughout his transition. As a result, Dorian accepted a position as an Area Manager for @Amazon in the Chicagoland area. Congratulations Dorian! We’re excited for you and your family!
