Why we do what we do
Warhorse Scuba Inc. was founded in 2016 by John M. Gannaio and Sharon Patterson.
Warhorse SCUBA Inc was founded on the knowledge that everyday, 22 US Military Combat Veterans commit suicide. Furthermore, several studies have been conducted that determined SCUBA diving has positive affects on personnel suffering from Post Traumatic Stress Disorder, Traumatic Brain Injury, C-Spine Injuries, and other disabilities. Throughout the certification process, all participants will also be taught how to be excellent stewards of the underwater environment.
Warhorse SCUBA provides additional opportunities of social interaction for our combat veterans with further SCUBA and general aquatic activities such as; local and abroad SCUBA diving trips, kayaking, canoeing, rafting, fishing trips, beach bonfires and more!
