info_outlineBecause he never wore a uniform or carried a badge, Ben Buehler-Garcia has always considered it his duty to support those who do. When the creator of American Warrior Radio died unexpectedly, Ben decided to jump in with both feet knowing nothing about the radio business. At first his plan was for it just to be a weekend labor of love, often subsidized out of his own pocket. When he began receiving inquiries from national level guests, Ben committed to getting these important stories to as many ears as possible. American Warrior Radio is now syndicated by The Talk Media Network and broadcasts coast to coast on 19 terrestrial radio stations and Wreaths Across America Radio. The show was just picked up by the American Forces Network and will be broadcast to our deployed military in approximately 168 countries and 20 ships at sea. Ben currently volunteers as Vice-President of the 9/11 Tower Challenge Foundation, Vice-Chariman of the USS Tucson (SSN 770) support group and on Congressman Juan Ciscomani's Veterans Advisory Council. He was named the Navy Operational Support Center's "Good Neighbor of the Year" and also served as Honorary Commander to Lt. General Robin Rand (US 12th Air Force) Pete A Turner and Ben go back a number of years now. Pete has FINALLY remembered to book Ben for the Break It Down Show...we are excited to see what these two have in store.
