Brandon Duenas

Brandon enlisted in the Air Force in 2002, serving as a Security Forces Defender. He currently works at the headquarters level at the Pentagon. In talking to Brandon, you find that he waited years to address his on-going struggles, finally seeking help. No matter how long it took though, Brandon has found excitement in this new path, saying, “Having the opportunity to meet, learn, and grow with these amazing warriors has been an amazing experience. AFW2 provides so many opportunities to better yourself to live a fulfilling and complete life which we all deserve.” This is Brandon’s first time representing Team Air Force at the DOD Warrior Games and wanted to let other Wounded Warriors and fellow Airmen/Guardians know: “We all deal with our personal battles and the road to recovery is not the same for everyone. Seek help to determine your path and pace to overcome your barriers to happiness.”
