John Braswell spoke to us as a Veteran himself about his active duty in Afghanistan and his time spent in New York City right after 9/11. He worked with a group of 12 on his Special Forces A Team to establish a ‘safehouse’ in local neighborhoods and making friends who would in turn assist with identifying the "bad guys." Nine terrorists are residing in the Guantanamo Bay facility thanks to John’s efforts.

John works at EPOS, the software company in the Auburn Technology Park. He previously helped establish Bloomin' Colors with his brother.
