OVN Falllen Heroes Tribute Project Update: In 2026, Operation Vet NOW and Scheuring Speed Sports continue a powerful joint mission — to elevate the stories of America’s fallen heroes and ensure their sacrifice is never forgotten.

Scheuring Speed Sports is a world-class professional race team. But beyond championships and podiums, they set a higher standard — using their national platform to carry the names of our heroes across tracks throughout north america.

This season, we honor Captain Matthew Roland, USAF — KIA August 26, 2015.

Captain Roland was a United States Air Force Special Tactics Officer/Combat Controller and leader who gave his life in service to our nation. His name will ride all season long — not quietly, but boldly — in front of thousands.

We ask everyone who sees this:
Search his name.
Read his story.
Tell someone about his courage and commitment to this country.

And if you are moved by his story, we encourage you to support the mission that continues in his name by donating to the Matthew Roland Foundation:
https://www.matthewrolandfoundation.org/

Elevating stories like his to this level would not be possible without the partnership of Scheuring Speed Sports and their willingness to open their platform in tribute.

This is the OVN Fallen Heroes Tribute Project.
We race with purpose. We remember with intention. We'd like to incude a special thank you to the Snocross series.
