Brian Fish
Founder
Brian is passionate about veteran issues being that he is a retired service member himself. He entered the United States Marine Corps in 1986 after graduating high school. Originally stationed in Camp Lejeune, he completed subsequent tours in Japan, Korea, and the Philippines, with his primary MOS being a Long Shorman Logistics, and a secondary as a PMI Pistol & Rifle Coach. After separating from the military in 1990, he began working as a union painter. After 3 years, he exited the painter’s union in order to successfully create and operate his own painting and general construction business for the following 18 years.
For the last 12 years, Brian has been devoted to supporting various military non-profit organizations. From being an active member of his local Marine Corps League chapter, to hosting events with the local VFW, he has been insistent on continue to do his part for the community. During his work with the organizations, he has collaborated with Wounded Warriors of Pennsylvania, Gary Sinise Foundation, Wreaths Across America, and others.
Witnessing the difficulties that fellow peers have been facing is what motivated him to start V2 Services and Support. Aspirations for the nonprofit include helping post-military personnel obtain, maintain and retain their homes & motor vehicles, champion veteran-owned small businesses, and foster community development.
Brian is also a local chapter member of The Veterans of Foreign Wars Riders, which raises money for local families and businesses facing challenges. The organization also provides rides for veterans, participates in parades as well as funeral ceremonies. In his spare time he enjoys motor vehicles, DIY projects and college football. He firmly believes in the preservation and protection of the constitution, upholding foundational American principles, and supporting our troops.

Zach Fish
Treasurer
Zach was born and raised in a small town in central PA. Growing up, he attended public school, playing various sports, and enjoying the outdoors. Unsure of what he wanted to do once he graduated from high school, he decided to attend the Pennsylvania State University to obtain his bachelor’s in marketing.
To stay busy throughout high school and college, Zach worked in several industries, primarily focused on customer service and serving others. After obtaining his degree from Penn State, he was provided the opportunity to work for a veteran owned small business in the Department of Defense (DOD)/Department of the Navy (DON). His career began with creating training content used by DOD civilians, military, and other personnel. He then transferred over to another team where he assisted in major systematic conversions, to include assisting the United States Marines Corps (USMC) in a large endeavor, as well as working with various DON entities to complete supply-based warehouse conversions and material capitalization.
The office Zach worked within recognized his drive to support the overall mission, in which he was provided the opportunity to come on board as a DOD/DON civilian. He assumed a new role, which was in support of creating a new commercial repair-based SAP module and rolling it out to over 1,000 users in support of DON material repair.
Today, Zach leads a team of civilians and contractors in large system conversions and material capitalization, working with any and all DOD entities. He spends his free time with his wife and daughter running 5k runs, taking hikes, kayaking, and exploring parks.
