Legacy
Stand for the Troops
"Hack never lost his focus...That focus was on the young kids that our country sends to bleed and
die on our behalf. Everything he did in his retirement was to try to give them a better chance
to win and to come home. That's one hell of a legacy."
-Roger Charles, President of Soldiers for the Truth
In 1997, Hackworth founded Stand for the Troops Foundation (SFTT) with the objective of ensuring troops would be properly equipped and led by effective leaders in future conflicts. To this day, SFTT provides for the needs and lives of the soldiers who protect our country.
