November Monthly Meeting Featuring SFC (R) Gregory Allen Stube
November 4, 2015 @ 6:00 pm - 9:00 pm
Please join us for Houston Safari Club’s November monthly meeting, Wednesday, November 4th. We are pleased to present in celebration of Veteran’s Day our guest speaker, SFC (R) Gregory Allen Stube, US Army Special Forces, Green Beret.
Stube is no stranger to warriors or wounds. He grew up in west Tennessee and followed the longstanding family tradition of pursuing a military career—specifically in the U.S. Army. After four years in Infantry, Stube was selected in 1992 for Special Forces.
Staff Sgt. Stube was assigned to the 10th Special Forces Group, where he
served on several tours of duty throughout the 1990s. In 2001, he became an instructor at the John F. Kennedy Special Warfare Center, where he spent four years teaching those who would one day save his life.
While serving in Combat Operations in the Global War on Terror, Stube was wounded in Afghanistan during Operation Medusa. Stube’s A-Team encountered overwhelming numbers of Taliban fighters in The Battle of Sperwan Ghar, which lasted over a week. Stube’s wounds from a remotely detonated IED and enemy fire seemed fatal, but instead he survived to endure months of hospitalization and surgeries. Huge wounds to his abdomen, hip and pelvis eventually closed, his nearly severed leg was restored, and extensive full-thickness burns were grafted.
Stube has since retired with 23 years of service, to become the host of his own television show on NBC Sports, “Coming Home with Greg Stube.” Since the conclusion of the tv series, Stube stays close to his beloved military community at Ft. Bragg, NC, tuning in to current defense trends.
