Rich Brown was a Marine infantry assaultman. His story started with a teenage-triggered explosion in Haditha — and it could’ve ended there. But instead, he turned trauma into a mission: building men, community, and purpose after the uniform.
Rich co-founded Honor Bound Fit, runs executive protection operations, and leads the Guidon-22 ruck, where veterans carry 22 pounds for 22 miles to honor those we’ve lost — and prove no one walks alone.
The fight wasn’t just overseas. It was learning to become useful again.
