Dan Nelson | Ever Onward Ep. 13

Ahlquist. Season 1 Episode 13

Welcome to today's episode, where we delve into the essence of brotherhood, resilience, and service.

In this conversation, we are honored to spotlight the remarkable journey of Dan—a Centennial High School graduate turned UCLA Football Team Captain, who later answered the call of duty as a US Army Special Forces Officer and Green Beret. Dan's story is one of courage and sacrifice, marked by his service overseas in Afghanistan, where he was wounded in combat and earned the Purple Heart. But Dan's mission didn't end on the battlefield. Since leaving active duty, he has dedicated himself to supporting veterans and their spouses through Mission43, helping them transition to a better quality of life in Idaho.

Join us as we explore Dan's extraordinary path—from the gridiron to the front lines, and now to the forefront of veteran advocacy with Mission43.
