RANGER is a true tale of war seen through the lens of a Special Operations soldier, Sgt. David Waterhouse, in Iraq and Afghanistan. This first-hand account documents the brutality of combat and the raw nature of killing and death. It’s a journey of innocence lost, and the scars of war etched into the minds of service members. An untold account everyone should hear.
The Ranger Creed states that, “I accept the fact that as a Ranger my country expects me to move further, faster and fight harder than other soldier.”
After the release of RANGER, Further Faster Harder Foundation was created to give veterans a platform to tell their stories and find their purpose and voice again through documentaries, books, art, podcasts, and many other avenues.
Friday, June 28th marks the 19-year anniversary of the largest loss of Special Operations life since the Vietnam War. This event honors the memories of the 19 men who paid the ultimate sacrifice for their country.
We want to welcome everyone to join us in our First Charity Screening and Silent Auction to help give Voices to Vets.

Get ready for an unforgettable evening with Lt. Col. Ed Cottrell, a living legend and 102-year-old WWII P-47 fighter pilot, as he shares his thrilling experiences from the cockpit in the heart of World War II.
From his missions in Belgium and Germany—skip-bombing enemy positions and dodging deadly ground fire—to his harrowing encounter with German Me-109 fighters during the Battle of the Bulge, Ed’s story is one of sheer resilience and courage. Blinded by oil from a 20mm shell hit and facing enemy fighters on both sides, Ed made a daring escape, chugging his damaged P-47 home at a nail-biting 120 mph.
This isn’t just a recount of history; it’s a firsthand tale of survival against the odds, split-second decisions in the face of danger, and honor for those who fought to turn the tide against Hitler.
Don’t miss your chance to meet Ed Cottrell, hear his incredible story, and honor a veteran who’s been decorated with the French Legion of Honor and immortalized in Waiting for the Bullets, his Valor Studios print depicting this very encounter.
Tunnel to Towers is an organization aiming to help the nation to Never Forget the brave men and women who lost their lives on 9/11. T2T will be putting on this 5k to help support the nations veterans today. The race will be throughout the greater Downtown Greenville area.
