Service-Disabled Veteran Owned Small Business

Three Generations.
One Air Force.
SDVOSB.

Brock Industries is a certified Service-Disabled Veteran Owned Small Business. I served in the United States Air Force as a machinist and welder — at Edwards AFB on rocket propulsion R&D, and at Kadena AB supporting combat aircraft maintenance. That background is why I work the way I do.

The Service

I served from 1993 to 2003. Two bases, two mission sets, and a lot of time learning what precision, accountability, and working under real constraints actually means.

"Integrity first, service before self, excellence in all we do." — That wasn't a slogan for me. It was a daily operating standard.

I'm a third-generation airman. Military service wasn't something I fell into — it was where I was headed. What I didn't expect was how much the shop-floor discipline, the precision machining work, and the responsibility of supporting flight-critical systems would shape everything that came after. When I moved into EAM and Maximo, I already understood what a maintenance failure actually costs. That perspective doesn't come from a textbook.

Edwards AFB, California

Air Force Research Laboratory

From February 1998 to May 2003, I was stationed at Edwards Air Force Base, California, assigned to the Air Force Research Laboratory Propulsion Directorate. My primary role was research machinist and welder supporting rocket propulsion R&D programs.

Assignment AFRL, Propulsion Directorate
Duration Feb 1998 – May 2003
Role Research Machinist & Welder

This is where I earned Airman of the Year twice, completed Airman Leadership School as a Distinguished Graduate, and was awarded Building Manager and Site Safety Officer responsibilities. The work was precision machining for propulsion test components — tolerances mattered and there was no room for cut corners.

18th Maintenance Squadron

From May 1994 to February 1998, I was stationed at Kadena Air Base, Okinawa, Japan, with the 18th Maintenance Squadron. My role was aircraft support machinist and welder — keeping combat aircraft in the air in a high-operations-tempo environment in the Pacific theater.

Assignment 18th Maintenance Squadron
Duration May 1994 – Feb 1998
Role Aircraft Support Machinist & Welder

Kadena is one of the largest and most strategically important US air bases in the Pacific. Maintaining aircraft availability in that environment meant understanding what a maintenance backlog actually costs when the mission depends on it. I carry that understanding into every EAM engagement I run today.
