    It's Time To Serve! A Once In A Lifetime Opportunity  | #5

    I think this is the most important time of the year. 

    It's a good time to reflect on our accomplishments and get set for the next year. 

    It's also a time where, during the holidays people need the most help. 

    Although I can't serve in that capacity this holiday season, I've got something exciting that I've been wanting to share with you. Don't wait! Go check it out now!

    Tinker Talks - Silver Star Recipient, Oklahoma Military Hall of Fame Inductee, William "Pete" Piazza

    Tinker Talks - Silver Star Recipient, Oklahoma Military Hall of Fame Inductee, William "Pete" Piazza
    Tinker Talks celebrates veterans this year with a podcast honoring the service of Pete Piazza. Piazza served three tours in Vietnam. During his second tour, then-Staff Sgt. Piazza was NCO in Charge of the 3rd Security Police Squadron’s “C” Flight Security Resupply Team at Bien Hoa Air Base, near Saigon. North Vietnamese forces launched a rocket and ground attack Jan. 31, 1968, as part of the Tet Offensive. Piazza drove through machine gun and sniper fire to resupply the defenders who were quickly running out of ammunition. After the officer-in-charge was killed, Piazza assumed command and rallied with his troops in a show of stamina and force while they counter-attacked during an eight-hour assault. The position was held and in the end numbers of lives and hundreds of millions of dollars in aircraft and supplies were spared. He received the Silver Star, the third highest combat medal given to an Armed Forces member for his heroinism. Piazza is no stranger to Tinker Air Force Base. He served here in the late 80s prior to retiring. In 2014 a gate was named in his honor. Piazza still gives to our Airmen, showing up to speak for the Airmen Leadership School classes as well as coming out to spend time with our active duty members. This is a longer podcast and we could have gone for hours. Have a listen and give us your feedback in honor of this great hero.

    Homeownership and understanding real estate is a foundational tenet in building wealth. The market is very dynamic at the moment, with interest rates fluctuating and home prices on the move. Everyone I meet from young people starting out looking for their first home, to mid-career professionals looking for a vacation home, and late-career professionals considering downsizing or moving to their retirement destination…seems to be talking about real estate. I could not wait to have this conversation with JP and hear his insights on this market and advice for those ready to make "the leap".  I know you will learn something new in this conversation.

    Episode 18 featuring Gretchen Smith, Founder, Code Of Vets

    Gretchen Smith is a United States Air Force veteran who grew up in a challenging environment. Her father was a Vietnam veteran who returned home struggling with complications from Agent Orange and PTSD. She joined the military to get structure and purpose in her life and it worked. After losing her father too soon, Gretchen founded “Code Of Vets” as a tribute to his memory. Today, Code Of Vets utilizes Social Media outlets to identify veterans with needs and then connects them with what they need. As a non-profit, Code Of Vets delivers 98% of the donations they receive directly to those families or veterans in need. Sadly, she says some Social Media sites are blocking her efforts and she now needs help more than ever.
