    Houston, Texas

    in Houston

    Warriors,


    My name is Troy Garza active duty Marine Corps currently serving my duty in the Marine Corps Enlisted Commissioning Education Program (MECEP). I had the honor of serving with Abbate during my deployment to Sangin (Kilo 3/5), so I’m honored to be a part of this forum. I just wanted to put a comm check out there to any and all. I’ll be in the Houston area for another year or so and if anyone needs anything reach out to me. Looking forward to the first event that is gonna be held in Texas.

    S/F,

    Troy

    Garza, where are you in the Houston area? Once we get some events planned after the New Year I’ll make sure to post them here.

    Garza! Would love to get a beer with you soon. If you're helping start this up maybe I can help. I know the veteran org landscape here in Houston very well. Excited to see you're part of this. @Troy Joseph Garza

    @cress.clippard lets do it brother. Im glad to see you on here. You’re definitely an asset the organization needs. I’m not so much helping to start this but sure want to be a part of anything they need. I can be in direct support in whatever they need prior to my extract of Houston area.

    Jake Johnson here. Just left active duty, now in the SMCR with 1/23. Live in Houston - attending law school. Coincidentally, my first PltSgt knew Matt Abbate well from their time in 3/5 together - so I heard lots of stories about the man and Marine. I think this outlet is a phenomenal resource that is doing great things already in his memory. I look forward to helping out whenever and wherever I can - and linking up with folks on here. Cheers.

    @Jake Johnson Which law school are you attending? Who was your platoon sergeant? Thanks for stopping by and stay tuned for upcoming plans.

    Good deal. I believe he was one of @tks522 squad leaders in Kilo.
