Great Addition to the team! Congrats Brutha!
Best of luck John !!! Hope everything goes well for you !!
Interesting addition, nice to see an addition of someone whose skill set goes beyond the shooting end of a weapons system. Not that there’s anything wrong with hiring former SEALs, Rangers, and the like but it’s nice to see a company hire someone from the SOF community that really knows what makes something work as opposed to what they like or don’t like in something.
Very cool. Congrats, John!
Good stuff. Congrats. Liking Proof more and more!
Congrats John!
One of the best! Congrats John.
