The Dogs of War

JJA Dog Logo

Every team member at Joseph J. Albanese, Inc. is a “Dog of War,” embodying the spirit of a team that battles together to win each construction job while focusing on “Getting It Done, Safely.”

Our Motivation

The concept of the Dogs of War comes from the Vietnam squadron of John Albanese, the son of the company’s founder, Joseph J. Albanese. Being a “Dog of War” means having the mentality of accomplishing the mission, never leaving anyone behind and taking pride in the team.
