Dean Goble is a retired Green Beret with 20 years in U.S. Army Special Forces and has continued serving after the military as the Director of Philanthropy at Black Rifle Coffee Company (BRCC).

Logan Stark is a Marine Corps Scout Sniper, and one of BRCC’s original “Core Four,” and the company’s Editor-in-Chief.

I had the chance to sit down with them and have a real discussion on leadership and transition, behind-the-scenes looks at building a mission-driven brand, and how Black Rifle continues to support veterans, first responders, and their communities.
