Veteran-led Team Rubicon aids in tornado recovery efforts in Glenn Heights

RP members check this out! Veteran with PTSD leading cleanup efforts!

J.J. Selvig found life after the military as a part of Team Rubicon. Sarah McCord found her purpose.

Selvig, a 30-year-old Marine Corps veteran from Fort Worth, did two tours of duty in Iraq and came home suffering from post-traumatic stress disorder.

Team Rubicon volunteers James Horten, Scott Crawford and Dennis Clancey clear debris from a home in Glenn Heights. Since the late December tornadoes that hit the North Texas area, dozens of Team Rubicon volunteers have worked each day in Glenn Heights to assist in recovery efforts.

Selvig and about 40 others are part of Team Rubicon’s tornado relief effort in Glenn Heights. City leaders say they have been instrumental. They form at 7 a.m. each day at Home Depot in Lancaster before fanning out to clean up and repair damaged neighborhoods. Members from all over the country will be in town over the next several weeks cleaning up hard-hit spots.
