BREAKING: President Trump announces that 9/11 hero Welles Crowther will posthumously receive the Presidential Medal of Freedom.
Known as “The Man in the Red Bandana,” Crowther repeatedly ran back into the South Tower on 9/11 to help others escape, saving as many as 18 lives before losing his own.
Allison Crowther said her son’s legacy continues to endure nearly 25 years later: “Welles’ light still shines brightly.”
Not to jinx it, but don’t think he’s hit a bad putt yet today. Maybe the birdie putt at 3 but…
Haven’t seen him this confident with the flatstick in some time. Guess it just took him trying 3 different ones at Hilton Head 😂
The Special Warfare community is mourning the loss of DEVGRU (SEAL Team 6) Red Squadron operator Rob Roy, who sadly passed away this week.
Master Chief Rob Roy served 25 years in the Navy. He graduated with BUD/S Class 147, which at the time was the third class ever to have no one quit during Hell Week. He spent a total of 21 years in the SEAL Teams, including 10 years at the elite DEVGRU.
Rob appeared on the TV show "Deadliest Warrior," as well as on the cover of a SOCOM video game. He is also the author of the book "The Navy SEAL Art of War: Leadership Lessons from the World's Most Elite Fighting Force."
Rest easy Rob 🔱
I was hit with the news yesterday that my first Navy mentor, Rob Roy, passed away.
Rob served 26 years in the Navy, including 20 years in the SEAL Teams. He served with DEVGRU on the East Coast and with Teams on the West Coast.
When I was going through the screening process for BUD/S, Rob was in charge of the program. After I passed and received orders, he took me under his wing and spent countless weekends helping me prepare for training.
After I left the Navy in 2016, Rob gave me a side gig training civilians who had earned SEAL contracts and were preparing for BUD/S.
Yesterday morning, Rob was experiencing chest pains, so he drove himself to Naval Medical Center San Diego, and passed away from a heart attack at the gate.
Rob had a tremendous impact on my life and on the lives of many others he mentored over the years.
Till we meet again, brother.

I never met a special operations guy in my life who didn’t have a touch of criminal in him. Ain’t nothing wrong with it as long as it’s kept in check. Those guys are just a little different.
