INITIAL SUCCESS OR TOTAL FAILURE! This is the motto of a unique and dedicated community that I am proud to be part of - Explosive Ordnance Disposal (EOD). I retired from active duty in the world's most feared fighting force as a Master Gunnery Sergeant of Marines. During my nearly 22-yr career, I deployed six times to scenic Iraq and Afghanistan. Not content to just take in the picturesque scenery, I disarmed nearly 1000 Improvised Explosive Devices as well as destroyed over one million pounds of enemy ordnance. I also was one of the first responders on the ground for the humanitarian relief efforts associated with the Christmas 2004 Indian Ocean Tsunami. In 2008 I was working an incident in Fallujah, Iraq when an IED detonated severely wounding me. Fortunately, I was medevaced Bethesda, MD where I endured over 80 surgeries in order to not only stay on active duty but to one day return to combat. In 2012 those efforts paid off with a sixth combat tour to Afghanistan. Upon retirement I was looking to give back to the Veteran Community and through a Marine EOD friend came across a perfect opportunity in JDog Junk Removal. At JDog Junk Removal, United, a Military Veteran Partners Company, our mission is to EMPOWER, SERVE and PROTECT. We do this by:- Empowering Veterans through entrepreneurship by creating career and employment opportunities for Veteran s, military spouses, Veteran family members and others who share our same values and work ethic.- Serving our community by partnering with local charities that can reuse the items we haul away or benefit from resale proceeds.- Protecting the environment using repurpose, resale, reuse, and recycling strategies that keep 80% of the items we remove from our customers’ homes and businesses out of the landfill.I am always eager to connect and share how our mission, values and services can serve you.David Gravley📞 281-964-7201✉️ DGravley@JDog.com💻 www.jdogjunkremoval.com/franchising/Houston
