Our returning Men and Women of the Armed Forces have a very good friend in UFC Star “All American” Brian Stann. The 185 competitor is not just a UFC fighter, he’s also the Executive Director of Hire Heroes USA. Stann’s next big fight will be against UFC Veteran Chris “the Crippler” Leben January 1st, 2011

About Brian Stann: Brian comes to HHUSA from the United States Marine Corps, having left active duty in May 2008 as a Captain. He received his commission through the United States Naval Academy, where he excelled in football as a linebacker and earned a degree in Economics. Brian’s military career included two tours in Operation Iraqi Freedom as an Infantry Officer in both the Al Qaim and Habbiniyah regions. In recognition of his valiant actions during an ambush by Iraqi insurgents, Brian was awarded the Silver Star, the nation’s third highest military honor.
As he neared the conclusion of his military service, Brian became increasingly involved with mixed martial arts. He made his World Extreme Cagefighting debut in June 2006 and became the WEC Light Heavyweight champion in March 2008. Brian made his UFC debut in April 2009.

Brian is excited about the opportunity to lead the Hire Heroes USA team and looks forward to the continued success of the program.
