Recognizing and Honoring our Valued Veteran Security Team Members
Meet Officer Robert Hall from Sunstates Savannah region
For Officer Robert Hall, military service is a four-generation family tradition. From his grandfather and father to his own 25 years in the United States Army and now his son, the Hall family has built a legacy of service to their country. Today, Robert continues that commitment as an Armed Security Officer in Sunstates Security’s Savannah region, bringing decades of military experience, discipline, and dedication to his role.
MILITARY EXPERIENCE
Originally from Texas, Robert enlisted in the United States Army in 1990 and began his military journey at Fort Knox, Kentucky, where he completed basic training as a Cavalry Scout. A few years into his service, he transitioned to the Military Police (MP) field, where he spent most of his military career. Over the next 25 years, Robert served on several deployments, including Iraq, Afghanistan, Bosnia, and other locations worldwide. He retired from the Army in 2015 at Fort Stewart, Georgia, eventually settling in nearby Savannah.
Military service has remained a defining part of Robert’s family history. His grandfather served, followed by his father, Robert himself, and now his son, who currently serves with the Army’s 11th Airborne Division in Alaska. Having witnessed military service across multiple generations, Robert reflected on how much the experience has changed over time. From his father’s service during the Vietnam era to his son’s military career today, each generation has faced its own challenges, responsibilities, and experiences. While the military continues to evolve, the Hall family’s commitment to serving their country has remained constant.
Looking back on his time in the Army, Robert shared that 25 years of military service brought countless experiences, both good and challenging. With deployments across the world and a career spent primarily in Military Police operations, he has more stories than he could share in one conversation. Although his military career took him far from home, the experiences and relationships he developed throughout those years continue to shape his perspective today.
SERVICE & SUNSTATES
After retiring from the military in 2015, Robert transitioned into civilian security, beginning his career in Savannah. His extensive Military Police background provided a strong foundation for the profession, allowing him to continue applying the skills and experience he developed throughout his military service.
On May 2, 2022, Robert joined Sunstates Security as an Armed Security Officer at Savannah City Hall. Having spent much of his life in roles centered on protection and service, Robert found a familiar sense of responsibility in his position. His background in military law enforcement continues to influence the professionalism, discipline, and commitment he brings to his work each day.
In 2024, Robert faced a significant personal challenge when a serious medical condition required extended hospitalization. After several months away, he fully recovered and returned to work. During that difficult period, Robert experienced firsthand the support and compassion of his Sunstates team. He specifically recognized Account Manager Daniel Florin, who also shares a Military Police background, for taking the time to visit him while he was hospitalized. The gesture left a lasting impression on Robert and reinforced his appreciation for the people he works alongside.
For Robert, one of the most meaningful aspects of his experience with Sunstates has been the relationships he has developed. Having worked in different environments throughout his military and civilian careers, he appreciates the genuine care and support he has received from his colleagues. His experience serves as a reminder that a strong team is built not only through professionalism and shared responsibilities but also through the willingness to support one another when it matters most.
When reflecting on his military career and transition into civilian life, Robert’s experiences highlight the lasting value of adaptability, dedication, and service. His journey from Cavalry Scout to Military Police Officer and eventually to private security demonstrates how the skills gained through military service can continue to provide purpose and direction long after retirement.
DAILY LIFE
Outside of work, Robert enjoys life in Savannah with his wife while staying connected to his son, who currently serves. Despite his extensive military background and his family’s generations of service, Robert remains humble about his accomplishments. He does not consider himself a hero, viewing his military career simply as a path he chose and a responsibility he was proud to fulfill.
Robert’s story reflects a remarkable legacy of service that extends beyond his own military career. From one generation to the next, the Hall family has continued answering the call to serve, carrying forward a tradition of dedication and commitment. Sunstates Security is proud to recognize Officer Robert Hall for his 25 years of honorable military service, his resilience, and the experience and professionalism he continues to bring to the Savannah region.
