Meet Bryce Mahoney - U.S. Army Ranger Veteran, dad, husband, veteran advocate and avid outdoorsman. Bryce grew up in Virginia Beach where he surfed, camped and hung out with friends. Fast forward to an unplanned pregnancy at age 19, Bryce had a life choice to make. Enter the United States Army. Bryce’s early days in the Army came pre-9/11, but that day came quickly. After graduating RIP (Ranger Indoctrination Process) on Sept. 1, and moving to his squad on Sept. 4, he had just 7 days in a peacetime Army. A few deployments to Iraq and Afghanistan later as a Ranger, Bryce had yet another unexpected shift in life trajectory when he was transferred out of Ranger Regiment and into a regular Army battalion.
