Welcome
Why we do what we do
Warhorse SCUBA Inc. was founded in 2016 by a group of friends who recognized a critical need within the veteran community. Every day, an estimated 22 U.S. military combat veterans lose their lives to suicide. Motivated by this devastating reality, Warhorse SCUBA was established to provide healing, purpose, and community through the therapeutic power of diving.
Research has shown that SCUBA diving can have profoundly positive effects on individuals coping with Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD), Traumatic Brain Injury (TBI), C-spine injuries, and other service-related disabilities. Through our certification programs, participants not only gain diving skills but also learn to become responsible stewards of our underwater ecosystems.
Beyond certification, Warhorse SCUBA fosters camaraderie and connection among veterans through ongoing dive excursions, social gatherings, and community events—creating an enduring network of support, adventure, and shared purpose

Our mission
Our mission is simple
Warhorse Scuba Inc. was founded in 2016 by John M. Gannaio and Sharon Patterson.
Warhorse SCUBA Inc was founded on the knowledge that everyday, 22 US Military Combat Veterans commit suicide. Furthermore, several studies have been conducted that determined SCUBA diving has positive affects on personnel suffering from Post Traumatic Stress Disorder, Traumatic Brain Injury, C-Spine Injuries, and other disabilities. Throughout the certification process, all participants will also be taught how to be excellent stewards of the underwater environment.
Warhorse SCUBA provides additional opportunities of social interaction for our combat veterans with further SCUBA and general aquatic activities such as; local and abroad SCUBA diving trips, kayaking, canoeing, rafting, fishing trips, beach bonfires and more!
