My Military Story

Hello, my name is Roy Reed, and I am a Dream Vacations Travel Agency Franchise Owner. I proudly served in the United States Army for ten years. While serving, I was responsible for the safety of all crew and passengers while maintaining an airworthy helicopter and was stationed in Fort Dix NJ, Fort Rucker AL, and New Castle DE. The military gave me the opportunity to experience new cultures and gain firsthand knowledge and tips for traveling.

After an honorable discharge, I wanted to pursue a career that would continue to provide travel opportunities, and where my military skills would be useful. These include attention to detail, leadership, planning, thinking on my feet, adaptability, following policy, using multiple resources, and much more. After much research, I discovered Dream Vacations, the #1 travel agency franchise for veterans. With approximately 35% of agency owners having served in the Armed Forces, Dream Vacations’ veteran-owned travel network is one of the largest in the country and has more than 30 years of supporting military cruisers and vacationers with discounts and expert planning to enjoy leave time, retirement, or any getaway stress-free.

I am joined by my spouse, Tracy, in making dream vacations become a reality.

“Tracy has been a source of strength and support during my military career and with our Dream Vacations franchise.”

Just like I served my country, I am looking forward to answering the call of duty and serving you.

“Serving our country in the US Army as a helicopter crew chief was such a thrill and a great honor. Now I serve our communities along with other veteran-owned Dream Vacations franchises by helping families make long-lasting memories through travel.”
