Driving Veteran Empowerment in Detroit 🌟 Warrior Rising recently teamed up with GMC and GM Defense for an unforgettable experience at the Milford Proving Grounds! More than 30 veterans had the chance to test-drive the incredible GMC HUMMER EV pickup and SUV—exploring features like the Watts to Freedom mode, 1,000 horsepower capabilities, and the Extreme Off-Road Package. From off-road challenges to exhilarating 0–60 mph launches, the day showcased innovation and grit, values we hold in the highest regard. As GM Defense Vice President John Johnson shared, “These veterans are an extension of the important community that we serve. We appreciate opportunities to align our team with the values demonstrated by those in the U.S. military, including patriotism, commitment, and integrity.” This event wasn’t just about cars—it was about celebrating veterans and equipping them for success in entrepreneurship and beyond. We’re grateful to GM Defense, GMC, and the incredible Warrior Rising community for making this possible. Here’s to many more collaborations that empower our veteran leaders and drive their success. 💪 Read the full article on GMC's website at the 🔗 below: https://lnkd.in/guG7jxpC _____ Matthew Boyer Ken Vennera Jason Van Camp Reggie Ordonez Sammy T.
