A passion for animals led Army Ranger Patrick Montgomery (left) to the University of Missouri, where he earned an animal sciences degree. He combined that passion with an interest in entrepreneurship to create the KC Cattle Company. The company raises quality wagyu beef – and Montgomery has worked hard to help veterans get back on their feet. The farmers and ranchers at the KC Cattle Company are all veterans.
