His determination in the Army, and now the civilian world, has earned him worldwide recognition as a motivational speaker and skydive demonstrator. Traveling the world, Dana spreads his message, “It’s Not the Disability, It’s the Ability! Never Quit.” Dana’s message is tailored to the audience and is and is not soon forgotten.
Dana will be doing several parachute jumps during the 78th Annual Sturgis® Motorcycle Rally™ and will be speaking at the Theater inside at the Harley-Davidson Activation downtown Sturgis.
