Inspired by DG Steve Ivory, Roswell Rotary Club President Trummie Lee Patrick has committed to honoring a Hometown Hero each month.

Our first RRC Hometown Hero honoree recognized decorated retired Army Medic Jarrad Turner, Sr. Turner, an Army medic who was deployed twice to Iraq and served a total of 10 years, is now Chief Executive Officer of Veterans Technology Solutions (VTS) USA and serves on the board of The Shepherd’s Center in Atlanta. He has built a career defined by purpose, resilience, and results from the battlefield to the boardroom. He is committed to advancing the technology that addresses veterans’ unique challenges including improving healthcare outcomes for those diagnosed with Traumatic Brain Injury.

As a member of the Shepherd’s Men, he is one of many who are dedicated to raising the funds to support the Shepherd Center SHARE Military Initiative which has seen over 125 million people since the 2014 inception and raised over $15million. In 2018, he and Scott Johnson founded the Warrior Alliance platform which serves 12,000 veterans across the South. Through his efforts, the Atlanta Braves donated a 5,000 square foot facility dedicated to veteran support in the Battery Atlanta. We are honored to recognize you, Retired Medic Jarrard Turner, Sr and all of your work to improve the lives of those who fought to protect our freedom.
