Since the beginning of 2014, Combined Insurance has hired more than 3,100 veterans and family members. The company is committed to hiring 3,000 more veterans and family members by the end of 2018.

"Bob has more than thirty years of experience as a proven military and business leader and we are excited to welcome him to our team," said Doug Abercrombie, Chief Agency Officer at Combined Insurance. "Bob's longstanding tenure within the insurance industry, leading large sales, operations and military initiatives, along with his years of honorable military service to our country make him an ideal fit for our company and this position."
