Living Your Legacy · How an Army Veteran Built a 50-Year American Manufacturing Legacy · 17 Jul 2026 podcast

It's a second generation veteran owned company that's manufacturing unique stuff that really you can't get anywhere else on the shelf or, you know, everything's custom made.

But we also have a lot of really cool designs that we're, you know, we're

gonna launch in our uh 50th year so we turned 50 years this year so two generations um this will be this will be the year when i exceed my father in uh running and owning the company so i feel like you don't see that a lot which is multi-generational veteran owned businesses why is that you know um

You know, it depends on what career path that either that second generation or that first generation took, right?

If somebody retired out of the military and started a business, then it's too late for their kid to take it over.

My father and I both did our time, but didn't make a career out of it, you know?

Um, so I think, I think that's one of the things you gotta have all the stars kind of aligned, right.

Um, for that to, for that to work on a timeline, right.

Even on the timeline.

Cause you know, if somebody, a lot of people get out of the military, retire, cause you can retire in your forties.

And so you've got a lot of life left in you.

And so, but by that time your kids already in their twenties or already started their own career.

And so, uh, in our case, it was just really, um, kind of a unique scenario to do that.

And keeping something alive for 50 years is not an easy task.

Yep, 100%.

Yeah.

Well, it's a really interesting story.

I mean, the whole thing started, my dad was a forest ranger, wasn't a business guy at all.

And then one year just made a cool gift for his friends that had the Forest Service logo on it.
