After Hire Heroes USA founder John Bardis met veteran Justin Callahan - who lost a leg when he served in Afghanistan - playing basketball, he got the idea to start Hire Heroes USA.
Hire Heroes USA's mission is to provide career placement assistance to returning service men and women, and the program specializes in the placement of those injured or with any level of disability. Created in 2007, the program works with hundreds of veterans and pairs about eight to ten veterans each month with jobs. The group serves veterans from all branches of the military: Army, Navy, Air Force, Marines, National Guard, Reservists and Coast Guard.

TEQUILA CAZADORES® PRESENTS THE FIRST AUTHENTIC SPIRIT AWARD OF 2010 TO BRIAN STANN AT UFC 109
MIAMI (February 5, 2010) – For the past ten months Tequila CAZADORES®, the number-one premium tequila in the world and Official Spirits Sponsor of the Ultimate Fighting Championship® (“UFC®”), has recognized one UFC fighter each month with the Tequila CAZADORES Authentic Spirit Award. This fighter embodies the core values of the brand demonstrating the following qualities: social responsibility, commitment to the MMA art form, or good sportsmanship. The tenth recipient of the Tequila CAZADORES Authentic Spirit Award epitomizes the award from his generous spirit and winning outlook to his military heroics. Light-Heavyweight fighter, Brian Stann will accept this award at UFC 109 in Las Vegas, NV.
One word that will never be used to describe Brian Stann is “selfish”.
In spite of every obstacle he has determinedly driven through in his life and every accolade he has earned in his decorated military and mixed martial arts careers, Stann’s arms remain too busy saluting and shaking the hands of the platoon of supporters who stand behind him to stop for a moment and pat himself on the back.
To the retired United States Marine Corps Captain, who now runs a non-profit agency that finds employment for former military personnel, guts have always outweighed glory by tenfold. As such, it’s no surprise that heading into his fourth UFC fight, the former WEC light heavyweight champion is as busy making sure his men are looked after as he is planning for the imminent battle.
