SEATTLE, May 20, 2019 /PRNewswire/ -- VICIS, a global leader in head protection technology and headgear, today announced the launch of the VICIS Protector Program, honoring the men and women committed to protecting us as part of National Military Appreciation Month. Through the program, active and retired military, veterans and first responders will receive a significant discount on all VICIS tech, apparel and gear, including the top-rated ZERO1 and ZERO1 YOUTH football helmets.
The ongoing offer is available to the men and women of the United States Army, Navy, Air Force, Marine Corps, Coast Guard, law enforcement, firefighters and EMTs.
"The VICIS Protector Program is a way for our team to give back to the most selfless and giving members of our community," said Dave Marver, VICIS CEO and co-founder. "It's an honor to protect those who protect us."
The Protector Program is the latest in VICIS' commitment to honoring and protecting those who serve. In 2018, VICIS was awarded a contract from the U.S. Army Natick Soldier Research, Development and Engineering Center (NSRDEC). VICIS also enlists several decorated military advisors for its VICIS Military Coalition, bringing decades of military experience and strategic counsel.
On the field, the ZERO1 helmet is worn by hundreds of service academy football players, including most of the Army Black Knights roster, which recently presented a ZERO1 to President Trump during the Commander-in-Chief's Trophy Ceremony at the White House. Former Naval Academy football legend and Heisman Trophy winner Roger Staubach is a prominent VICIS investor and consultant.
All active and retired military, veterans and first responders are eligible for special pricing at: www.vicis.com/protectorprogram.
