Aaron is a USMC veteran, former Contractor in Iraq, Celebrity Trainer, and now moving into the Acting arena.  

During the interview Aaron discusses the solemn duty of being a USMC Body Bearer, his work as a Contractor in Iraq, to transitioning from homelessness to become a world-recognized trainer to his transition into the acting field.  

About the Marine Corps’ Body Bearer Section. “This elite unit, though small in number, is comprised of hand-selected candidates, who through the crucible of Body Bearer Ceremonial Drill School, honed their minds and bodies to recreate themselves into members of the most elite funeral detail in the United States’ Armed Forces. The primary mission of the Body Bearer section is to perform flawless funerals for Marines and Marine family members at Arlington National Cemetery and abroad. Additionally, the Body Bearer section is responsible for flawlessly executing a myriad of other ceremonial commitments that include: participating in Presidential, state and joint service funerals, manning the saluting battery of Marine Barracks Washington to render honors to dignitaries, and performing wreath laying ceremonies across the National Capitol Region.”
