Sgt. Matt Eversmann
Veterans Day Speaker
Sgt. Matt Eversmann’s legendary leadership while facing the horrors of war cemented his status as an American military hero. He was immortalized in the epic film, Black Hawk Down, which depicted the 18 harrowing hours when US soldiers in Somalia were trapped in a hostile district of Mogadishu. Eversmann recounts the events of Black Hawk Down, which powerfully demonstrate the horrors of war, and the human qualities that are essential to survive it. Inspiring, motivational and patriotic, he always has an emotional impact on his audience.
