Jacob was nominated by his wife Taylor:
Jacob Adcock is my husband, he is the most amazing man I’ve ever met, he works hard and doesn’t give up. He was in the United States Marine Corps before joining the Coast Guard. He still wanted to serve his country when his contract was up with the Marine Corps so he joined the Coast Guard. Jacob has supported me through my pregnancy losses and was my rock even when he was on a boat and had to leave during my miscarriage, he still called and texted as much as possible. He kept his hopes up that we would be able to get pregnant and the baby was going to survive while in reality being so scared of me losing another baby. He had to hold himself together for us and for work. He’s gone through so much between the two branches of the military but continues to go to work and give it his absolute 100% no matter what we are going through mentally, physically, emotionally or financially. He is my Hero and will always be.
