SSgt Elvin Oquendo Vazquez, U.S. Marine Corps

“SSO is by far one of the top non profit organizations that lift up the soul of those that are actively serving our country. My experience was one that I would recommend to any active duty unit of the military branch to give themselves a chance to pause, make time and come together as a team to build camaraderie in an adventurous way. . . SSO set a time for the service member [to] reevaluate, recalibrate and meditate in their faith and the value of their life and point back to our Creator. You got to be part of one of their events in order to experience what’s hard for me to describe about how amazing time I had with my unit and the SSO staff.”

Maj Jake Crockett, U.S. Marine Corps

“An experience that will help forge fighting spirit within a team. Top-notch organization of great people. 10 out of 10 would recommend to any commander who believes in building a winning team. Do not underestimate the power of spiritual fitness!”

COL Jay Harty, U.S. Army

“The organization is completely and unequivocally committed to the resiliency and spiritual fitness of our service members. And they do it through fun, challenging, and unique events for our heroes. Keep up the great work and I’ll certainly leverage SSO in the near future at Fort Bragg, NC. Hooah!! Army Strong!!”

Maj Tyler Folan, U.S. Marine Corps

“Incredible and memorable training event with SSO! Rick and his team plan and deliver an experience that all participants will talk about for the rest of their life. Strongly encourage all leaders to reach out to Rick and his team to make this opportunity available to more service members!”
