During his time with the Marines, Riggle deployed on a variety of missions all over the world. Serving in Liberia, Kosovo, Albania, and Afghanistan. When America was attacked on 9/11, Riggle worked grueling shifts at ground zero searching for survivors, by hand.

Post military service Rob found enormous success in television as a correspondent on The Daily Show. Followed by roles in hit films like Step Brothers, The Hangover, 12 Strong, and 21 Jump Street.
