Captain Chris DuBois
Warrior X Instructor
Captain Chris DuBois is the rare leader who has commanded at every level that matters — and still chose to step forward as your guide. Ten years as a U.S. Marine Corps Infantry Platoon Sergeant leading men through the 2003 invasion of Iraq. Thirteen more years in the Utah Army National Guard, culminating as Company Commander of A Company, 142nd Military Intelligence Battalion and Officer-in-Charge of the Counterdrug State Plans Program. NATO deployment to Poland in 2021 as Platoon Leader. Armor Officer with Cavalry designation. He has held every single company-grade leadership role except First Sergeant — from Squad Leader to Recon Platoon Senior Scout — plus four Army Achievement Medals, one Army Commendation Medal, and one Navy & Marine Corps Achievement Medal. Outside the uniform, he built a legendary civilian career training thousands of athletes from middle school to professional level. What makes Captain DuBois truly novel is his battlefield-tested philosophy: "Be a joyful warrior." He proves that the highest performance and the hardest missions are won with a positive mindset and the ability to find light — even in darkness. His personal creed: "No one is coming to save you. You have to do it yourself."
