Post-military, he worked in private security and as a truck driver. Financial struggles led him to Veterans Forward, which connected him with Booth Bay Vets Inc. for temporary housing. The organization provided him with refurbished trailers, each equipped with essential amenities. Randy emphasized the importance of Veterans Forward’s support and encouraged others in need to seek their help.
