For 25 years, Floyd McLendon Jr. honorably served in the greatest naval military in the world. He enlisted into the United States Naval Reserve in the summer of 1992. Fourteen months later, he fully committed to Active Duty service and chose Electronics Technician (ET) “A” School to become a radar and satellite communication’s expert. After six years of naval service, Floyd contemplated his career goals and the impact he was making. With his family, friends, and fellow Americans in mind, Floyd decided to undertake the most grueling and difficult goal of his life: becoming a U.S. Navy SEAL. There was just one problem: Floyd didn’t know how to swim. He didn’t let that stop him. After teaching himself how to swim and months of non-stop preparation, Floyd passed the Basic Underwater Demolition/SEAL (BUD/S) Physical Screening Test. Suffering from an internal injury that caused him to lose 30 lbs., Floyd rang the bell during his second attempt of Hell Week, voluntarily quitting. Fifteen months later, faced with a daunting decision to follow through with his goal, Floyd remembered his motivation: service to his family, friends, and fellow Americans. He returned to BUD/S, after voluntarily quitting during Hell Week, and graduated with BUD/S Class 254, officially becoming a U.S. Navy SEAL. He spent the next 13 years at four, different Naval Special Warfare commands. He deployed five times, with presence in twenty-four countries over five continents. Throughout Floyd’s service, he was held accountable and pushed to grow by his SEAL brothers in some of the most godforsaken war zones on the planet. He sees this same level of accountability lacking in Congress where two-faced, career politicians say one thing at home and do another in Washington. While their constituents suffer from ever-growing taxes and job-killing regulations, career politicians cozy up to special interests and pad their pockets. Floyd sees a desperate need for new, service-minded leadership in Congress that puts Americans first and demands accountability. He will bring his service before self-leadership and invaluable experience to Congress to fight for limited government, lower taxes, protecting the unborn, preserving the 2nd Amendment, and defending religious liberty. Since retiring from naval service, Floyd has traveled the country speaking professionally and been a published author. He is steadfast in his Christian faith, a devoted husband to his wife, Melinda, and a committed father to their four children Trenton, Tanner, Ty, and Keylen.
