The Green Beret Foundation is proud to announce a groundbreaking partnership with Kalbio Biotechnology and the Stem Cell Sports Institute of Southern California to launch the Bodies Beyond Human Limits initiative. This program offers Special Forces veterans with traumatic brain injuries (TBI) to FDA IND-approved regenerative stem cell therapies. This program is inspired by the journey of Green Beret Justin Menchaca, who survived a life-threatening gunshot wound to the head during his second combat deployment in 2011. Against all odds—and through years of intensive therapy—Menchaca regained mobility, speech, and independence. But his journey did not stop with traditional medicine. In 2020, Travis Wilson, GBF's Director of Mission and Community Services, recognized an opportunity to introduce Justin Menchaca to the world of stem cells through a research-based protocol. This initiative was supported by the Green Beret Foundation and stemmed from Travis's own experience with stem cell therapy after his near-fatal free-fall accident while on active duty. Along with Travis, Justin became one of the first Green Berets to undergo PremiereMax stem cell therapy, dramatically improving his quality of life by reducing chronic pain, enhancing speech fluency, improving mobility, and alleviating the symptoms of TBI. #greenberetfoundation #GBFstrongertogether #TBI #traumaticbraininjuries #stemcelltherapy

“This nation is going to have an Army. America, not the Army, is going to decide how we do that.” SMA Dan Dailey explains why the public, not the Pentagon, will shape the next generation of American warfighters and if there is a possibility of a draft to meet recruiting numbers. In this episode, he dives into the recruiting crisis, the cultural disconnect between civilians and service, and what it means to maintain an all-volunteer force in today’s environment. If America wants an elite Army, it must recognize the responsibility to support, value, and recruit the people who make it possible.

“If you had one hour before your soldiers went to combat—what would you train on?” Former Sergeant Major of the Army Dan Dailey shares the powerful question he uses to measure a leader’s ability to prioritize, prepare, and lead under pressure. In this conversation with Fran Racioppi, SMA Dailey breaks down how individual and unit readiness is not just about gear or numbers—it’s about confidence, clarity, and focus on the mission. He explains how the Army’s combat training centers, mental preparation, and leadership development strategies must align to make every second count when it matters most.

30 U.S. Army Special Forces soldiers have been awarded the Medal of Honor, the nation’s highest military decoration for valor in action against an enemy force. These warriors represent the very best of America’s commitment to courage, service, and sacrifice. Spanning conflicts from Vietnam to the Global War on Terror, their stories stand among the most powerful examples of heroism and leadership in modern military history. Each recipient displayed extraordinary bravery under the most harrowing conditions, often putting the lives of others before their own. Their legacies endure—not only in the pages of military history, but in the lives they saved and the freedoms they fought to protect. #greenberetfoundation #specialforces #medalofhonorday #medalofhonor
