Military CDs
"The Real Deal" CD is a special version of Dave Roever's amazing story of tragedy to triumph produced specifically for the military. It is not available to the public in general. Tens of thousands have been donated to military members around the world, including the war zones. A military commander or chaplain may contact us at info@daveroever.org to request sufficient quantities to meet the needs of his/her personnel. Requests will be met as stock is available.

PROFESSIONAL DEVELOPMENT
Dave Roever, a superb communicator, does professional development, military values training and motivational/inspirational presentations world-wide, donning battle-rattle when necessary. His effective, tri-angular model of faith, family and friends hits the target. Troops are sharply readied for service, motivated to give their best, and even inspired to re-enlist. He takes encouragement to the troops wherever they are. Troops are amazed when a fellow soldier who has engaged like forces, suffered for his country, and triumphed over his near-fatal injury, shows up on site at their post or forward operating base in the war zones.
