This Week's Speaker - Lynsey Hoges & Tiffany Garcia - Clayton Ladue Rotary

The Mission Continues, a 501(c)(3) nonprofit

organization, was founded in 2007 after CEO

Eric Greitens returned home from service in

Iraq as a Navy SEAL. Upon his return, Eric visited

with wounded Marines at Bethesda Naval

Hospital in Maryland. Without exception, each

Marine expressed an unwavering desire to

continue serving his country, even if he could

no longer do so in the military. One young

Marine even said this: “I lost my legs – that is

all. I did not lose my desire to serve, or my pride

in being an American.” Inspired, Eric used his

own combat pay and two friends pitched in

their military disability checks to found The
Mission Continues.
