“Our heroes deserve the best of everything when they come home and unfortunately not everyone is taken care of...GSF has built houses for our most wounded heroes who would not have an easy life or living situation otherwise. We owe everything we have to our soldiers and as a soldier I’m not going to let anyone fall through the cracks!”
