Friend,

My name is Sam Brown — I’m a husband, father, small businessman, retired Army Captain, and, as of this week, a Republican candidate for the U.S. Senate.

While I was serving in Afghanistan in 2008, a roadside bomb detonated below the gas tank of my vehicle.

My body was immediately engulfed in flames. 

I remember thinking “How long will it be before I burn to death?”

But despite our enemy’s best efforts, I survived.

By the grace of God, one of my soldiers was able to extinguish the flames and save my life as I was staring death in the face.

I truly shouldn’t be alive today. 

For three years, I went through over 30 surgeries to recover from my wounds.

I was bed bound, and over 30% of my body was permanently scarred.

But this experience taught me the most important and valuable lesson that I’ve ever learned:

Putting it all on the line in service to the American people is the greatest honor imaginable.

That’s why every day since I nearly lost my life, I’ve dedicated every fiber of my being to continue my service to the greatest country in the history of mankind.

Friend, I’m telling you all this because I’m hoping that I can count on your financial support — but I don’t want to ask you to part with your hard-earned money without telling you my story.

The American people DESERVE a champion who can stand in the fight without flinching. With your help, I can be that champion. 

Friend, my candidacy is truly unique because there’s NOTHING that Joe Biden, the Washington establishment, or the media can do to me that’s worse than what I went through on the battlefield in Afghanistan.

Can you help me out and chip in $10, 15, or even $25 so that I can continue serving our country?

Now more than ever, we need leaders who are willing to serve — even when things get difficult.

Nevada deserves nothing less. America deserves nothing less. You deserve nothing less.

We owe it to our nation, to our state, and to everyone who has sacrificed in service of our country.

Please, join my team today!

Duty First,

Captain Sam Brown
