Nate was deployed to the Al Jaber AB, Kuwait, in February 2003 for OIF. In April, he pushed forward into Southern Iraq performing courier & shotgun duties for cargo truck convoys. In 2004 Nate transferred to the AF Reserves and served with the 459th Air Refueling Wing at JB Andrews, MD. In 2007 he then transitioned to the 113th Wing, DCANG. There he pursued a BS Degree in Psychology and graduated from the University of Maryland in 2011.
Nate has participated in several activities to help wounded and disabled veterans. Serving the military since January 2000 has given him a unique perspective of the needs of these heroes.
He spent several years at the Office of Naval Research, working with a talented team of science nerds in Navy and Marine Corps technology development. Doug retired in 2013 and went to work in underwater robotics. He bought his second Jeep in 2015 and found in the Jeep community the camaraderie, shared experience, love of the outdoors, adrenaline, and smack talk that he’d been missing since retirement.
Several friends in local Jeep groups volunteered with 4W2H. That, and a growing feeling of needing to give back to the warrior community drew him to 4W2H in 2018. He lives in Virginia with his wife of 22 years and two fantastic kids.
Having been involved with Jeeps since rescuing a rare Alaskan Postal Scrambler in Anchorage and driving it back to NC in 2002, Eric has enjoyed the offroad community, attending events all around the country with his wife and daughter.
Having served as the Communications Director since 2020 and with a background in marketing and having run JPFreek Adventure Magazine from 2014-2020, Eric brings a great set of tools to the position of Vice President to help support our warriors through offroad therapy.
A love for classic Jeeps and a deep respect for military personnel led Sean to reach out to get involved with a family-oriented organization combining both.
Sean has a Finance degree from Villanova University and MBA from George Washington University. He can be found driving his 1978 Cherokee Chief or 1983 CJ7.
Not only did Cindie’s dad serve for 25 years, her family is filled with veterans. Her beloved uncle Homer served on the frontlines of Vietnam, her grandfather served, and now her son, Cody, is proudly serving in the Navy, as well.
Cindie now resides in Maryland, works in Delaware and can be seen driving her 2014 Wrangler “Cinderfreakinrella.”
After Germany, Jarrod decided to continue his education back at home, graduating from Shepherd College in West Virginia with a fine art degree in Photography. He started a family with a wife and then three kids before 9/11 struck. Feeling a strong need to contribute and missing the Brotherhood he had found in the Army, he decided to try to make a difference in the lives around him and joined the law enforcement community. During this time, he has performed different roles with his favorite being his time as a K9 handler with his canine partner, Dante.
He bought his Jeep in 2016 and joined the off-roading world, where he was introduced to 4W2H. He quickly felt like this was a group where he belonged, and more importantly, a mission worth supporting.
Previously, Heather volunteered with Colorado 4X4 Rescue and Recovery, participating in challenging rescue missions in the Rockies, which reinforced her commitment to teamwork and community service.
Heather holds a bachelor’s degree in Geography from Metropolitan State University, which enhances her understanding of the landscapes she explores. Whether it’s supporting anti-human trafficking, helping veterans experience offroad adventures, speaking up for disabled persons accessing public lands, aiding the homeless during winter, or raising funds for injured law enforcement officers, her work is driven by a desire to serve and make a positive impact. From military service to offroad enthusiast and community leader, she has found purpose in helping others overcome their challenges and find their path to recovery through offroading.
