YN1 Becky Floria Named Warrior of the Month
October 20, 2023 | Story by Alyssa Ross | Navy Wounded Warrior
YN1 Becky Floria has been enrolled in Navy Wounded Warrior for a year. She's a See Bee with Naval Construction Group (NCG) 1. Once she discovered the program, she knew it was for her.
"I had no hesitation [joining] once I learned about the program," she said. "In a world of chaos and confusion, Navy Wounded Warrior provides clarity, guidance, and peace-of-mind to those they serve, and their families."
Becky has benefited from the program's offerings in navigating her way to a new normal.
"Most people think it's for physically wounded people who went to war and it's not that at all. I recommend Navy Wounded Warrior to others because it can help them. It's a tremendous program. Their knowledge, caring and teamwork is second to none."
