Forged by Valor, a 501(c)(3) nonprofit in Rochester, NY, is offering an 800-hour welding education program that is operated by two veterans who understand the struggles firsthand.“Under the hood, you don’t see anything but the glow of the arc,” says Scott Quick, co-founder of Forged by Valor. A sergeant with the 75th Ranger Regiment, one of the U.S. Army’s most elite special operations units, Quick did more “crazy stuff” than he cares to remember. Fortunately, he found welding after active duty service.
