He is a Chief Warrant Officer Four with the Delaware Army National Guard where he has served since 1981, and a Veteran of Operation Iraqi Freedom and the Counter War on Terrorism.On July 20, 2021, it came to light that Brady had referred to sex workers using the racist and misogynistic terms "chink broads" in an email sent the previous month. The email was sent amidst rising anti-Asian sentiment in the US during the COVID-19 pandemic which had been the focus of national attention just months earlier when eight people, six of whom were Asian women, were killed in the 2021 Atlanta spa shootings. Some criticisms of Brady's email noted the simultaneous use of an anti-Asian slur and misogynistic term, pointing out that racism and sexism against Asian American women are often intertwined. Due to Brady's actions, activists and politicians are now calling on Brady to resign.
