UPDATE: Jon Macaskill has RETIRED! We thank him for his commitment to America, professionalism, and sincere willingness to move into the civilian sector to help others. Keep going Jon!
Jon Macaskill is a soon to be retiring Navy SEAL Commander transitioning to the private sector in August. Jon has served as both an enlisted sailor and as a commissioned officer. He graduated from the United States Naval Academy in 2001 and went straight to SEAL Training known as BUD/S (pronounced “buds”). He has served in various roles in the SEAL Teams and been deployed multiple times primarily to the Middle East.

Jon is married with two young children and lives in Virginia but will be moving to Colorado this summer.
