When
their country needed them, they responded to the call.
For over a quarter century Tony and Marti Giacobe have served our country
in places like Korea, Turkey, Saudi Arabia, England, Germany, Japan and
the Philippines. Now they’re ready
to serve your real estate needs with that same level of dedication,
professionalism and committment.
Tony
comes from over 350 years of patriots believing in America since 1632 when
his immigrant ancestor, John White, came here from England on the “Lyon”,
one of the many ships of the Winthrop Fleet.
His great great great great grandfather served in the American Revolution,
his great grandfather served in the national guard, his grandfather served
in WWI, and his parents served in World War II in the US Army Medical Corps.
When our country needed him during the Vietnam conflict, he answered the
call to duty and began a successful pilot career in the United States Air
Force flying high performance jets.
So good, he was initially chosen as a primary jet instructor, teaching
new recruits how to fly. Later his
aviator skills earned him a position in the Flying Tigers, flying the ultimate
armor killing machine, the A-10 Thunderbolt II.
Responding
to our countries needs in Southwest Asia, he deployed as a fighter squadron
operations officer and served with distinction during Operation Desert
Shield/Storm. His drive and determination earned several command positions:
first with the Big Red One, the U.S. Army’s First Infantry Division; then
along the Korean Demilitarized Zone leading a 120-person field-mobile communications
unit; and finally, overseeing Civil Air Patrol’s flying, and Search and
Rescue operations throughout a nine state area in New England.
His expertise in Close Air Support was so widely recognized that he was
personally selected to advise the USCENTCOM Army Component Commander who
was in charge of all ground forces throughout the Persian Gulf and Southwest
Asia. Again, he served with distinction
during Operations Northern Watch, Southern Watch, and Operation Desert
Fox. Click here for his full military bio.
