Tom Hall WOD

Thomas Lee Hall was the son of Fort Mill Mayor, William Lee Hall. He gave his life in WW1. Here’s the Citation from his Congressional Medal of Honor:

Having overcome two machine-gun nests under his skillful leadership, Sgt. Hall’s platoon was stopped 800 yards from its final objective by machine-gun fire of particular intensity. Ordering his men to take cover in a sunken road, he advanced alone on the enemy machine-gun post and killed five members of the crew with his bayonet and thereby made possible the further advance of the line. While attacking another machine-gun nest later in the day this gallant soldier was mortally wounded.

The main part of HWY 160 through Fort Mill was renamed from “[John Wilkes] Booth Street” to “Tom Hall Street.” His heroic deeds helped our town move on from its secessionist past.

Warmup:
SSH
IW
HW
Mosey
118 Swings w/ cinder block
30 Squats w/ Block overhead
30 Merkins
(Sgt Hall was in COMPANY G of the Army’s 118TH INFANTRY, 30TH DIVISION)

Laps in front of sugar creek
One lap – just mosey (Sgt. Hall survived the first attack on the German position)
One lap – bear crawl/lunge walk/block carry (Sgt. Hall’s second attack was the one that took his life)

After each of the two laps, we sprinted the hill alone to honor Sgt Hall ordering his men to stay behind and advancing solo to take the German machine gun positions. At the pull-up bars: 5 pull-ups, 5 knees to chest, 5 L leg raises. 5 manmakers back down at the bottom of the hill for the 5 Germans he killed at bayonet point.

Rinse and repeat. We sprinted the hill 3 times.

YHC talked about topic on slack around disappointment and how it’s part of everyday because of the brokenness we live in. If we lived in Sky Qs intended paradise disappointment would not exist but because of The Fall, we live in disappointment. Question and challenge for each of us is how will we lead through it and rise above it and shine light into that disappointment. Be a leader and don’t swim in the missed opportunities but rejoice in moving forward.
Thank you Kaiser for the Q stick! Humbled and Grateful
