Austin Irby had a llifelong ambition to be a Navy SEAL. This is evident by one of his second grade papers, a single sheet written in crayon, which said exactly that. Immediately after graduation from the University of Florida, he enlisted in the Navy. Austin completed Basic Underwater Demolitions / SEALs and SEAL Qualification Training with class 285. He served on some of the nation’s most sensitive initiatives while attached to SEAL Delivery Vehicle Team ONE and SEAL Team TWO.
