 | Success with the Government: Heritage Global Solutions In the Marines, recruits are trained to work hard, to believe in a team effort and to have a “can do” attitude. So when former Marine Jeff Estep decided to start his own business, naturally he knew could do it.
“The Marine Corps instills a sense of teamwork and a ‘can do’ attitude that still prevails with me and my management team,” said Estep, who was on active duty from 1975 through 1981.
Estep transitioned out of the Corps as a captain and a CH-53 pilot. He was also a member of the ANGLICO community — elite small units who specialize in coordinating artillery, naval gunfire and close air support for ground troops. |
