Eric Garcia has been lost. After an impressive military career that included assignments with the 75th Ranger Regiment and the 3rd US Infantry Regiment (Old Guard), his life took a turn for the worst. In 2010, Eric found himself homeless, addicted, and on the way to rehab. Just 7 months later, he started a small nonprofit to support Veterans through fitness and fellowship. He soon found Team RWB and in the time since has been one of our very best volunteer leaders.
Today, Eric serves other Veterans as a case manager at the Salvation Army in Tampa, Florida. He is working on a Mission Continues fellowship and will complete his degree in psychology next spring. Eric spends his time in trenches, meeting Veterans where they are at, everyday. His perspective is absolutely priceless.
This episode is a very raw and honest conversation that speaks to all of us. Please take it to heart and share with your friends.
