  • “Imagine walking around with 10 different radio stations going on in your head. Everywhere you turn its just uncontrollable and unwanted noise. Add fear, lack of sleep, nightmare, rage, depression, anxiety and a need to consume alcohol or an illegal substance and you have a glimpse of what some veterans experience daily. My first time diving with Warhorse Scuba was at the bottom of a pool. When I sat there on the bottom of the pool looking up… I heard no radio. I felt no weight on my back. It was silent. It was clear I was free… They provide our nations heroes some much needed mental silence. We need more groups like Warhorse SCUBA.” –USMC Veteran Dennis Addesso

  • “Warhorse SCUBA is an amazing organization dedicated to helping combat veterans suffering from PTSD/TBI by using aquatic therapy. Their staff members are professional dive instructors who love to share their passion for SCUBA diving with everyone. As a combat veteran who has had the opportunity to take advantage of this program, I have benefittted immesnely. I not only gained new skills to help deal with PTSD, but I have also gained friends and family…. my SCUBA family! Even after the training and certification have long been completed, the staff still reaches out regularly to check up on me and invite everyone to get together for events and some fun and exciting trips to keep everyones skills sharp throughout the year. These connections build a strong bond within the groups which forms a close knit support group that we like to call our SCUBA family. If you are a combat veteran and think this program is for you, I highly reommend reaching out to them to schedule a Try A Dive. Sharon, John and the Warhorse SCUBA Staff are amazing people and would love to introduce you to the wonderful world of SCUBA! Thank you Warhorse for all that you do and thank you Joe (Divers Two) for all of your support!” -US Army Veteran Danny Guzman

  • “There are no words to describe the feeling of scuba diving. Once I got over the initial “hey, am I breathing underwater?!” I got comfortable with it. I really wanted to stay in longer. When all was done, I felt such a rush that cannot be described. Thank you all for opportunity. I only can hope that I am able to give back once I am certified.” -Veteran Leo Magee
