Warrior of the Week Episode 29: Joel Gruber
In this week’s edition of our Warrior of the Week series, TickPick is proud to honor Joel Gruber. We are incredibly grateful for Joel’s service in the Army, and are honored to send him tickets to see the Bulls vs. Magic!
Veteran: Joel Gruber
Event: Chicago Bulls vs. Orlando Magic
Branch of Military: United States Army
After graduating from college and spending a year working in finance, Joel decided to join the Army. He ended up in a reconnaissance unit in the 82nd Airborne Division where he deployed in support of Operation Iraqi Freedom in 2008 to 2009. His favorite part about being in the Army was meeting people from so many different walks of life and with varied experiences. Despite these differences, Joel loved how everyone could come together to achieve a common goal.
Thank you for your service, Joel!
