In this compelling episode of Living Well Together, we sit down with Rick Perales — retired U.S. Air Force veteran, longtime public servant, devoted husband, father, and grandfather, and the voice behind the PitBull214 podcast.

After decades of service in uniform and in public office, Rick has made it his personal mission to ensure that no veteran is left navigating life alone. Through PitBull214, he is closing the information gap that keeps too many veterans and their families from accessing the resources, benefits, and opportunities they have already earned.

Rick shares why Beavercreek became home, how service became part of his DNA, and what he has learned about the unseen struggles veterans face after the uniform comes off. This conversation stays above politics and focuses on what truly matters — honoring sacrifice with action, strengthening our local community, and equipping veterans with the knowledge they need to thrive.

If you have served, love someone who has, or simply want to be part of building a stronger, more informed veteran community in Greene County and beyond, this episode will leave you inspired — and equipped.
