Episode 294 | The Longbow Foundation - EMPOWERING VETERANS TO FIND PURPOSE THROUGH ADVENTURE

MISSION: EMPOWERING VETERANS TO FIND PURPOSE THROUGH ADVENTURE.The Founders Story - “The Longbow Foundation didn’t begin in a boardroom—it took flight in the cockpit of an Apache Longbow over Afghanistan. Amid high-stakes missions and sleepless nights, I witnessed the burden carried by those who serve. It was in those moments—between adrenaline and silence—that the vision for Longbow was born: to stand by veterans long after the battle ends.After nine years in military aviation and over 1,200 flight hours—200 in combat—I had the honor of supporting some of the world’s most elite forces. The missions were high-stakes, the expectations uncompromising. But nothing prepared me for what came next. Transitioning out of uniform, I faced a new kind of battle: finding purpose without a mission plan. And I wasn’t alone—many of my fellow veterans, especially from special operations and aviation, were navigating the same uncertain terrain.For many veterans, the real challenge begins after combat. The mission ends, the uniform comes off—but the need for purpose remains. Without it, too many warriors feel lost, disconnected, and unsupported. The Longbow Foundation was born to change that—to help veterans rediscover direction, community, and meaning in their next chapter.” - Chase Carlton, Founder / DirectorBrian Tally
