Lt. Colonel Allen West Joins Patriot Academy as Senior Advisor

(Austin, TX—March 22, 2022)—Patriot Academy, the Texas-based organization equipping a new generation of leaders to champion the cause of freedom and truth and return America to its founding Constitutional principles, is proud to announce that former Congressman and candidate for Governor of Texas, Lt. Col. Allen B. West (ret.), has joined the organization as Senior Advisor. 

“There is no better champion and spokesman on Constitutional liberties than Lt. Col. Allen West. To have his voice, influence, training, and direction infused into our programs for young leaders, military veterans, and citizens of all ages will turbocharge our effort to rebuild liberty and restore constitutional literacy,” said Rick Green, Founder and President of Patriot Academy

"For our Constitutional Republic to continue, it’s imperative we educate every generation on the rule of law and on the transcendent document that binds us together as one people. The mission of The Patriot Academy is to arm the intellect of the American Patriot, and as I have had the honor to serve my country by physically defending this document, I now look forward to defending all that we hold sacred by battling in the arena of ideas. America is an idea, and we are losing the war of ideas among our young people. Not on my watch,” said Lt. Col. Allen West, Senior Advisor with Patriot Academy. 

Allen West is a retired U.S. Army lieutenant colonel, member of the Republican Party, West represented Florida's 22nd congressional district in the United States House of Representatives from 2011 to 2013 and served as the Chairman of the Republican Party of Texas from 2020 to 2021.
