Dennis Tripp: A Legacy of Leadership and Service

With a military career spanning over two decades (1999–2023), Dennis Tripp served in the U.S. Army as an Infantryman, rising through the ranks to Command Sergeant Major. His leadership was forged in some of the most challenging environments.

Shared Dennis, “To me, service is about supporting your fellow Americans. Whether through the military or your local community, we all have a part to play.”

One of Dennis’s most cherished memories is his time as a Platoon Sergeant at Fort Carson, Colorado, where he led the same group of soldiers for nearly five years; three of which were spent deployed in Iraq. That time created lifelong bonds that still remain strong today.

Now retired, Dennis has found a new mission as part of the team at GovTools, where he continues to serve by supporting government professionals and military personnel with trusted resources.

When it comes to gear, Dennis swears by the Rocky S2V boots which have been a staple throughout his career. “Whether in Iraq, Ranger School, or Mountain Warfare School in Vermont - snow, mud, or mountains - the S2Vs never let me down. Their stability, comfort, and traction sealed the deal for me.”

For Dennis Tripp, service didn’t end with retirement—it simply evolved. And he continues focused on his purpose.
