Lunch Discussion on Grey Bull Rescue & Their Missions Across Conflicts and Disaster Zones

Please join us for a special luncheon and discussion with Bryan Stern, Chairman & CEO of Grey Bull Rescue, for another fascinating and deeply educational BENS event. Bryan will share the mission and vision of Grey Bull Rescue, as well as some of the extraordinary—and lifesaving—denied-area rescue operations the organization has executed all over the world from Russia to Gaza. This is an event you won’t want to miss.

Bryan’s team formed during in August 2021 during the U.S. withdrawal from Afghanistan. While boots-on-ground, Stern and his team landed the first airplane under Taliban rule and rescued 117 Americans left behind weeks after the military had left. Since then, his team at Grey Bull Rescue has conducted 796 daring missions with operations in Afghanistan, Ukraine, Russia, Sudan, Haiti, Syria, Lebanon, Israel, and Gaza rescuing over 8,000 Americans and allies from war zones, conflict, kidnappings, and hostage situations.

More About Grey Bull Rescue

For the last four years, Stern has led his team of highly-specialized men and women doing unfathomably risky work in the world’s most dangerous places. Through the Grey Bull Rescue Foundation, based in Tampa, Stern and his cohorts (some 120 people) are “the last option” rescue all-stars doing the impossible to save lives at the “SPEED OF NEED”.

Grey Bull Rescue skills are honed from years in the Special Operations and Intelligence Communities employing “old school” tactics and tradecraft paired with modern technologies and calculated American tenacity. Further still, Grey Bull is funded entirely by donations from patriotic Americans and businesses who serve as mission partners and sponsors and nothing they do is classified.

Global instability is increasing, risks to Americans at all-time highs, and every COCOM is presently kinetic. Grey Bull Rescue is postured to react and respond – filling a critical void— in the event of war to rescue and evacuate Americans at risk anytime, anywhere. Whether it’s extracting families from war zones, negotiating safe returns of hostages and kidnap victims, or organizing emergency evacuations under fire, Bryan and his team operate with precision and purpose in some of the world’s most volatile environments deep behind enemy lines. Bryan will discuss Grey Bull operations and their plans to rescue Americans in danger and need evacuation as we face global conflict.

Guided by their core ethos—“Don’t Be a Spectator”—Grey Bull Rescue stands at the forefront of courage and patriotism. Their dedicated team embodies hope for those caught in the most perilous situations, operating in the complex “Grey Space” where government assistance often is unable to assist. They move at what Bryan calls “the Speed of Need”, conducting daring, rapid-response missions to save Americans and allies facing imminent danger, or trapped, or held captive by the enemy.

 

This promises to be a powerful, thought-provoking, and educational event. We encourage you to join us—and feel free to invite a friend who may have an interest in this vital and timely topic.

Report Launch: America’s National Security Vulnerability, Generic Drug Manufacturing & Biotech Innovation

Join a hybrid discussion marking the release of our new report, America’s National Security Vulnerability: Generic Drug Manufacturing & Biotechnology Innovation. While generic drugs account for more than 90 percent of U.S. prescriptions, the vast majority of their active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs) and key starting materials (KSMs) are produced overseas, often in geopolitically sensitive environments.
