Event Description:
Northeast Indiana Base Community Council is hosting a lunch Tuesday, October 8, 2019, at Parkview Mirro Center at 11:30 a.m. with keynote speaker Greg Stube.
Greg Stube - Special Forces Warrior, Speaker, and Author of Conquer Anything. A Combat-wounded veteran, after returning home and receiving extensive medical care, Greg's inspiring story makes him a sought after speaker inspiring others to achieve their highest possible goals in both their professional and private lives.
The son of a career Navy man, Greg Stube enlisted to serve in the US Army in 1988 as an infantryman. Greg was later selected to be part of an elite team of Green Berets in 1992, and trained as a Special Forces Medical Sergeant, 18D.
During his years of service, Greg participated in the initial development of the Special Forces Advanced Urban Combat training doctrine and the 10th SFG(A) SFAUC course, where his weapons capabilities and shooting abilities remained at the core of Special Forces proficiency and competency throughout a career on the teams. Greg spent the 1900s, with the Specail Forces, stationed in hostile fire zones.
While serving in Combat Operations in the Global War on Terror, Stube was wounded in Afghanistan during Operation Medusa. Stube's A-Team encountered overwhelming numbers of Taliban fighters in The Battle of Sperwan Ghar, which lasted over a week. Stube's wounds from a remotely detonated IED and enemy fire seemed fatal, but instead he survived to endure months of hospitalization and surgeries. On the path to a "miracle" recovery, Greg endured 17 surgeries and an 18 month hospital stay. Greg retired in 2011 after 23 years of dedicated service.
After returning home, Greg went on to host his own television show on NBC Sports titled Coming Home with Greg Stube. Greg is also a consultant and serves as a leadership presented for the FBI and the FBI National Academy, in DC and Quantico. During his free time, Greg volunteers for various charity work.
Beginning at 10:30 a.m. on October 8, represenatives from Veteran and Military Family resources will be set up in the Concourse of Parkview Mirro Center and keynote speaker Greg Stube will be available for book signings and photographs. Throughout the event, attendees will enjoy networking with current members of the U.S. Armed Forces, Veterans, and business and community leaders.
