William “Prime” Hall served our nation for more than twelve years in the Marine Corps Special Operations Command (MARSOC), which took him to areas such as Southeast Asia, the Philippines, Afghanistan, and Iraq.
During a combat deployment to Afghanistan, his unit suffered heavy fire from multiple rocket-propelled grenades (RPGs). The attack left Prime with a severe traumatic brain injury (TBI), migraine headaches, dizziness and vertigo, and loss of memory. The years of hard service also left him with debilitating back injuries. He was forced into medical retirement with no clear plans for his future.
Prime decided to pursue his Executive MBA from the University of Southern California which focuses on entrepreneurial strategies. It was then that Sentinels of Freedom stepped in with financial support to help him work his way through the program and attain his goal of becoming an entrepreneur.
Utilizing his education and MARSOC training, Prime attained his dream of founding two businesses: Underwater Torpedo League (UTL) and Deep End Fitness. SOF connected him with the proper mentorship and meaningful network which allowed him to successfully launch these endeavors, and to make plans to take them nationwide
“SOF has given me the support I needed so that I could focus on the strategic priorities and goals that I wanted to set getting out of the military. Can’t say enough about this organization!”
Prime recently was selected as one of the Top 100 Best and Brightest Executive MBAs in the country for 2019! If you would like to help more deserving wounded veterans like Prime, please donate today at www.sentinelsoffreedom.org.
