"GOOD JOB"

This area is dedicated to the friends we have met that have stood out to us for their work with or for Veterans

I’m beyond excited — truly honored — to introduce Mr. David E. Grogan and share just a small part of his incredible mission: “Telling the Stories That Matter.”

David E. Grogan isn’t just an author—he’s a damn force of nature with a pen. This guy doesn’t write fluff; he writes like a man on a mission. His titles, Sapphire Pavilion, The Siegel Dispositions, and The Hidden Key, aren’t just books—they’re precision-strike storytelling loaded with honor, justice, and grit. Each one hits like a well-placed artillery round—on target and unforgettable.

But here’s the real deal: David doesn’t just tell stories—he serves. A former officer in the U.S. Navy JAG Corps, he wore the uniform with distinction and carried out his oath with honor. Now, even after hanging up his dress blues, he’s still boots-on-the-ground—this time, using words instead of weapons to fight for those who wore the uniform.

David’s current AO? Giving Veterans a voice. Real stories. Real sacrifice. Real grit. He’s capturing the soul of the veteran experience with raw honesty and deep respect—something we don’t see enough of in this world of noise and filters. While others sit back, David’s on the front line of remembrance, telling the tales most folks wouldn’t dare to.

Let me make this crystal clear: David E. Grogan gets my FULL battle-rattle salute. 🫡🫡🫡🫡🫡
Five-salute rating. No B.S.,

If you see his name stamped on a project—gear up and dive in. It’s the real deal. And do yourself a solid: hit up his page, grab one of his books, and experience storytelling that honors the uniform and the people in it.

Telling the Stories That Matter: The Mission of David E. Grogan

Some people write for fame. Others write for fortune. But David E. Grogan writes for something deeper—something that echoes with the honor and integrity forged over decades of military service. His mission? To ensure the voices of Veterans are never silenced or forgotten.

Dave Grogan is a man whose life has been anything but ordinary. With over 26 years of active duty service in the United States Navy as a Judge Advocate (JAG), he’s seen the world through a lens that most never experience. From the corridors of justice in military courtrooms to high-stakes negotiations in international capitals, Dave’s journey is defined by service, sacrifice, and an unwavering commitment to truth.

He’s lived and worked in far-flung corners of the globe—Japan, Cuba, Bahrain. He’s sailed the vast Mediterranean and navigated the volatile waters of the Persian Gulf aboard the USS Enterprise. Whether defending the innocent or prosecuting the guilty, battling piracy or standing against terrorism, every chapter of his military story has helped shape the writer he is today.

That passion for justice, for people, and for country breathes life into every book he writes. His gripping legal thrillers—Sapphire Pavilion, The Siegel Dispositions, and The Hidden Key—aren’t just fiction. They’re layered with the authenticity only someone who’s lived those moments can bring. Each novel weaves together international intrigue, compelling characters, and the raw tension of real-world moral dilemmas.

But it’s not just thrillers where Dave’s heart lies. With his powerful project, Voices To Veterans, he’s taken on a more personal mission: to share the real-life stories of those who served. Through interviews and storytelling, Dave captures the courage, resilience, and sacrifice of Veterans from all walks of life. It's a tribute—not only to their service—but to the legacy they leave behind. These stories matter. They educate. They inspire. They heal.

For Dave Grogan, storytelling is a form of service. It's a continuation of the oath he swore decades ago—only now, instead of wielding a gavel or donning a uniform, he’s using a pen. Through his writing, Dave ensures that the voices of Veterans are not just remembered—they’re honored.
