Omaha @ Tallawah

WARMUP: There was a significant emergency response at the WEP parking lot so we moved our kettle bells over to an adjacent parking lot. We moseyed over to the new playground which as we learned, due to the lack of pull up bars, is not as good as the old playground. We made due by doing some warm up exercises and made our way back to the bells. Now, due to a woman now working out solo by our kettle bells, we moved again to the long Springs parking lot.
THE THANG: Murder Bunnies 1/2 way down the parking lot (~25yds)
10 Clean & Jerk (ea arm), run to the light, 10 Burpees, run back.
20 Tricep Extensions, run to the Pike Electric parking lot, 20 Merkins, run back.

8.14.23 at The Badger

In the gloomy morning of August 14, 2023, 10 PAX descended upon the Honey Badger to put in work.

Started off with a timed 2-mile run. Finished that up, did some Mary in waiting for the six.

Headed over to the pull up bars for the main event.

Bradley

On January 3, 2010, while on a dismounted area reconnaissance patrol in the vicinity of Badvan village, his 13-man platoon-sized element was attacked by indirect mortar fire and an improvised explosive device. The initial attack threw an Airman and a Soldier into an adjacent creek, critically wounding the Airman and mortally wounding the Soldier. A second Soldier was mortally wounded and thrown 200 meters across the village by the blast. Airman Smith, without regard to his own safety, immediately rushed from his covered position, and into the waist-high water of the creek to save his fellow Airman and recover the killed Soldier. After moving the victims of the improvised explosive device attack to the Casualty Collection Point, Airman Smith volunteered to retrieve the soldier thrown across the village. Determined to never leave a comrade behind, Airman Smith proceeded at extreme risk, and without regard to his personal safety, along the eastern edge of the village to the Soldier’s remains. Airman Smith retrieved the fallen Soldier and began maneuvering back through the village toward the extraction site. Airman Smith waded back through the waist-high creek and proceeded toward the Casualty Collection Point. Upon arrival, a second Improvised Explosive Device detonated, killing Airman Smith and the platoon medic instantly.

It was an honor to be able to lead the workout this morning. This was diffident from most workouts because of the number of times we stopped to talk. However I felt it important to share with the guys what is happening around them. We also were able to congratulate Double D in his hand off of Nantan to Esso. Double D, thank you for you service to the pax. You have always been someone who ask the tough questions that challenge us and I thank you for that and what you did for our Region during your reign as Nantan. Esso, I look forward where you are going to take us and your energy to lead. We have a bright future ahead.
