In his book, From Service to Success, Bob Taylor shares his real-life experience of serving in combat as a B-52 navigator and then as a KC-135 navigator. He then goes on to describe his most challenging life transition from an Air Force career he loved to becoming a civilian family man beginning what would prove to be a successful career.
Bob earned a mechanical engineering degree from Michigan State University in 1986 then joined the Air Force in 1987. He married the love of his life, Sara, on the Fourth of July during navigator training, which he finished as a Distinguished Graduate. Shortly after that, Bob was stationed at Griffiss Air Force Base in New York. From there he was deployed to Diego Garcia where he flew eleven combat missions during Operation Desert Storm and received the Air Force’s, Air Medal. Bob also served as a KC-135 navigator and as an Air Force Academy Liaison Officer in the US Air Force Reserves.
Since his passage from military service, Bob has concentrated on the medical device industry, where he has started five new companies and sold two. Today, Bob is the founder, sole owner, and CEO of The Alliant family of companies in Grand Rapids, MI which includes Alliant Healthcare, Alliant Biotech, and Medisurge. Since 2002, this verified Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Business has sold over $750 million in healthcare products to the VA and military hospitals all over the world.
Bob has dealt with the impact of his service for over thirty years. He has worked within the VA health system for the last ten years and has experienced firsthand the perils of veteran care. “From Service to Success” is the cornerstone of the Patriot Promise® Foundation, which Bob created to assist in the efforts to decrease suicides among veterans and provide a clear path to a purpose-filled life after service. The foundation establishes non-profit ventures run 100% by veterans. The grand purpose is to offer veterans the ability to learn new skills in the workplace while also learning how to enhance their lives overall. The goal of The Patriot Promise® is to guide veterans in their search for a new mission and purpose and to lead them on a journey to a great life.
Bob now resides on Torch Lake in northern Michigan.
