Some of us kit up and yomp (ruck) it. I've had the honour of doing this with guys from many different branches of services, from all over the world as well as all the gov acronyms (OPSEC).
One guy showed up with a borrowed ALICE pack, a 45lb plate and other bits and bobs to make weight. Another had his Interceptor as well as other kit to make weight.
Got it and thanks. Us "older" guys need some time to train for a 5 mile ruck. This seems like a fitting honor though, especially in the WTC shadow.
I am going to try to move some things on my schedule to participate and will at a minimum donate.
By the way, my wife just asked if the new IFAK has a personal defibrillator.
No faith.....
If you want to be successful at anything, you'll need to develop a never quit attitude. Don't let life happen to you. Grab it by the throat and make life dance to your tune.
