*Regional Event* MCC Foundation: An Evening with Scott Mann

  • UMASS Lowell Applied Research Corporation (map)
  • Google Calendar ICS

*Regional Event*

Join the Middlesex Community College Foundation for an evening with Lieutenant Colonel (Retired) Scott Mann, a former U.S. Army Green Beret whose distinguished career has taken him on missions around the world, including deployments to Colombia, Peru, and Afghanistan. As the founder of Rooftop Leadership, Scott draws on his Special Forces experience to teach leaders how to build trust and foster meaningful connections, even in high-stakes, low-trust environments.

Scott is the author of the New York Times bestseller Operation Pineapple Express, a gripping third-person narrative that recounts the heroic efforts of veterans, volunteers, and Afghan allies during the chaotic U.S. withdrawal from Afghanistan in August 2021. This powerful story highlights themes of courage, sacrifice, and the enduring bonds of brotherhood in times of crisis.

In addition to his writing, Scott is the creator of Last Out: Elegy of a Green Beret, a critically acclaimed play that has toured the nation through a partnership with the Gary Sinise Foundation. This heartfelt production provides a voice to the sacrifices of veterans and their families, offering healing for those who have served and a deeper understanding for audiences about the personal costs of America’s longest war.
