"My son doesn’t have many male role models in his life and Veteran Air has really taken him under their wing! I just wanted to share this feel good story with you all! Backstory .... once upon a time, Veteran Air’s shop used to be just up the street from our house and my Camo & Veteran-loving boy grew up watching their trucks drive by our house multiple times a day! Brody has literally grown up LOVING Veteran Air. The first time he got to meet Mike Andersen, was like a little boy meeting his favorite Super Hero for the first time. Over the years, the friendship and admiration has only grown stronger! I thank God every day for these guys, the ENTIRE crew, that Brody loves & respects so much and has been a blessing and incredible role models for him! Brody had a blast last night networking with Kyle Berkley, the Veteran Air Brand Ambassador. There aren’t enough “thank yous” for who all of you are to Brody and all you have done for him!"
