Join the Carlisle Chamber of Commerce at their 2015 Annual Meeting!
The Chamber will host former Pittsburgh Steeler, four time Super Bowl Champion, Rocky Bleier!
Sports fans, especially football fans, should have some knowledge of Bleier. After suffering terrible wounds as a member of the U.S. Army in the Vietnam War, Bleier fought back and became a member of the Pittsburgh Steelers. As a halfback for the Steelers, he was involved in and won four Super Bowls. His story is chronicled in a book that he wrote Fighting Back and in a television movie by the same name..
He also serves as national spokesperson for the National Veterans Owned Business Association (NVOBA) which helps veteran owned businesses. According to Bleier, there are 3.6 million veteran owned businesses across the United States. “We provide veterans with an organization in which they can pull together to market themselves to corporate America,” said Bleier.
In addition, he is the managing member of RB VetCo LLC, a Service Disabled Veteran Owned general contractor in the construction industries, with offices in Pittsburgh and Chicago.
Bleier, his wife and their two little girls live in Pittsburgh. He and his wife are involved in many charity groups. He has two grown children from a previous marriage and four grandchildren.
