Gregg Thompson, Crye Precision Director said, “We are incredibly proud to join SERKET Racing and the NGT Motorsport race team in this effort. We’ve worked closely with Mark Llano for years to develop and deliver innovation for the warfighter and couldn’t be more excited to continue this tradition of excellence and integrity. Mark and his team are the ideal ambassadors to spread this message of gratitude to these heroes and we are simply glad to be a part of it.”
