MOS: 3531 Motor Transport (MS)
Unit: I Bat 5/10 2nd Mar Div.
Rank: E-4 Corp.
Branch of Service: U.S.M.C.
Time Served: 4 Years
Why I joined the Military: Basically a family tradition. My
grandfathers served in WW2 in the Army and the Air force. My Great Uncle earned a Silver Star in Korea; he used to say, “Si Vis Pacem, Para Bellum,” which means If you want peace, prepare for war. My family has served Our Country since the revolutionary war.
Why I Joined Handmade By Heroes: HBH made it easy for me to fit in with my type of disability.
Message to customers... I will guarantee that all of my bracelets are made with 100% effort to make sure it’s perfect.

Garrett.. Thanks man.. Picked up some issues along the way… As a retired Navy Chief, giving back has always been a large part of our mission as Chiefs. You exemplify the meaning of giving back. It is not the paracord or the colors selected. It is not really about who gave it to me or who thought I would appreciate it. It is about you and I. A connection that us brothers and sisters have that is stronger than most. Thank you Garret for giving more than you took. Thank you for thinking of others and especially your brothers and sisters. Your family has just grown by one my friend. Thank you and God Bless you…

CPL Gold, thank you so much for the beautiful Vietnam paracord bracelet. It has already become my most treasure Vietnam momento. I’ll wear it proudly everyday. FYI, I was pleasantly surprised to see you are from Colorado Springs. I spent the last 24 of my 35 years in the Air Force with the Colorado Air National Guard up north at Buckley AFB! Small world! Thanks again and SEMPER FI, MARINE!!

The bracelet is beautiful and will always remind me of my brothers in arms. I am also a Vietnam disabled veteran in Florida participating with PTSD groups at the local VA here. I will bring to my group meetings your bracelet and contact information to others like myself who are proud to support all veterans efforts to find peace and healing within our support network.

Garret, first I personally want to thank you and the rest of the men and women who served and are serving our great country. You made my Miami Dolphins paracord bracelet. What a FANTASTIC job and wouldn’t expect any less from a fine Marine like yourself. I, too, have an entire family of servicemen. My Daddy had 11 brothers and sisters (12 in all). Six boys and six girls. They were a farming family from south GA. All my Uncle’s including Dad were Military and all my Aunt’s married Military men. My Grandfather was Army and served WWI Rainbow Division (Medical). As you can see, I have a huge respect for servicemen and women. God Bless you and yours.
If you would like to reach out to me, please feel free to contact me via email at tjandralodge@gmail.com
Looking forward to hearing from you.

Dear Garrett. I wanted to contact you to thank you for my Clemson bracelet. It’s awesome and I’ve got several people asking me about it and where to get one. I am most definitely passing the website information along. My son served in the Corp as well… his MOS was 3521. He served his 4 years and got out. I wasn’t sure if I wanted him to stay in or get out to be safe. I have so much admiration for our serving men and women. If you would like to contact me, feel free to use my email address….tonya_sullivan@aol.com.
Again, thank for your hard work!

I appreciate what you all are doing, and I appreciate the opportunity to lend some moral support to our fine men and women of service.
