ANNOUNCEMENTS:
COT:
Zackary Tellier Story – Background: Dedicated to U.S. Sgt. Zachary D. Tellier, 31, of Charlotte, NC (USA) a combat infantryman with the 4th Squadron, 73rd Cavalry Regiment, 4th Brigade Combat Team, at Fort Bragg. He died Sept. 29, 2007, of wounds sustained while on a ground patrol in Afghanistan.

The previous April, Tellier’s unit was conducting a mounted patrol when one of its vehicles drove over and detonated a bomb, which set the vehicle on fire, according to a statement from the 82nd Airborne.

Tellier pulled two paratroopers out of the vehicle to safety, suffering severe burns to his hands. He was awarded the Bronze Star Medal with valor for his actions.

After he was burned, Tellier jumped up in the turret to return fire, said Sgt. Michael Layton, a member of Tellier’s unit. A lieutenant made Tellier get out of the vehicle because of his injuries, Layton said.

“Zachary Tellier has to be the biggest hero I’ve ever known or heard of, not just because of what he did, but because of his personality,” Layton said. “He came in the Army because he wanted to be around soldiers and serve his country, and he paid the ultimate sacrifice.”

Pax completed 4 plank jacks, 4 mountain climbers, 4 shoulder taps then moved 4 arm widths toward the opposite side of the field. Rinse and repeat until Pax reaches opposite sideline.
Once completed, Pax moved to the track for bear crawl 1/2 of curved portion of track followed by lunge walk remainder of curved portion. At straightaway, ran to the next curved portion for rinse and repeat of bear crawl and lunge walk. At the next straightaway, sprint to initial starting point.
Return to the field for rinse and repeat of 4s until Pax reached the opposite side of the field. Once completed, we started the rinse and repeat of the track lap but modified to full run after initial bear crawl/lunge due to time considerations.

The Most Difficult Mile – maybe

12 men showed up at The Ranch. I made sure I emphasized “modify if necessary” when stating the disclaimer. We began with a mosey warm-up with stops at each light pole for exercises. We made our way to the front of Springfield Elementary for the workout instructions. Simple workout, 4 laps around the car loop.
1st lap – burpees broad jumps
2nd lap- lunges
3rd lap- bear crawl
4th lap- run

most finished the first two laps. We modified the bear crawl due to time.
Great job by all!
