Tester's attacks on veteran-run business are shameful

Bridger Aerospace started with four veterans in a barn in Montana. Our next mission became using battlefield technology to serve Americans at home.
It was risky. We had zero business experience, but we had grit, our military experience and supportive family, friends and fellow veterans. We certainly made mistakes — find me a small business that hasn’t. But we pushed forward, and the results for Montana speak for themselves.
Over nine years, our veteran management team built a business ecosystem that created hundreds of new Montana jobs, generated over half a billion dollars in value, constructed over $60 million in Montana facilities, generated over $400 million of revenue for Montana and performed life-saving services for American wildland firefighters, warfighters and communities.
