Our military vets are not ‘suckers’ or ‘losers.’ Just ask Retired Colonel Gregory Gadson who lost both legs in an Iraqi bombing back in 2007.

Gadson is a real American Hero who honored us with his story of survival, service and sacrifice for his nation while in the United States Army for more than 26 years. He also served on the gridiron as a former linebacker for West Point.

Colonel Gadson opens up to NFL HOF Nominee Takeo Spikes and NFL Vet Tutan Reyes about:

  • Being revived after dying multiple times in Iraq
  • His life as a double amputee
  • Inspiring the New York Giants’ Super Bowl runs
  • The NFL kneeling protests for social justice
  • The military’s role in politics and the 2020 elections
  • His Hollywood acting role in “Battleship” with Rihanna
  • His daredevil lifestyle of action sports
  • Supporting the nation’s disabled active-duty and veteran military
  • Plus, so much more
