Mission Clean

When Paul Huszar retired from 23 years in the military, he knew he wanted to continue to build strong teams as he did with his battalion in the Army. What he didn't know is that he would continue that role in an unlikely business: water mitigation. But the change didn't faze him.

“The cool thing about veterans that people don't understand is that we're used to changing jobs every two to three years,” Huszar says. “So I roll up my sleeves and figure it out.”

The 46-year-old veteran is leading VetCor, a company of military veterans focused on cleaning up water damage to properties as a preferred provider for insurance companies. Huszar says the company, which began in March, is expected to grow to $3 million to $5 million in revenues in the next 12 months, from eight to 50 employees in one year.
