BACKBLAST:

Seven PAX weren’t scared of the rain to come out and #HonorTheFallen on this Memorial Day weekend. It was raining but there is cover to help keep us dry for the most part.

 

Today we honored U.S. Marine Cpl Albert Gettings, 27, a native of New Castle, PA. He served as a team leader with the 2nd Battalion, 6th Marine Regiment, 2nd Marine.

 

Cpl. Gettings died on January 5th, 2009 while conducting combat and counter-sniper operations in Falluja, Iraq. He was posthumously awarded the Silver Star for his exceptional bravery, leadership, and actions during the Global Ware on Terror.

Thankful we live in this great country. Regardless of your political stance, there is no better place to live than the great U.S.A. Being able to worship freely without the threat of persecution, openly read your bible, and a plethora of other freedoms we get to enjoy, make sure to remember what this weekend is really all about…those soldiers that paid the ultimate sacrifice for this great country. Thank you to all the brave men and women that have fought for our country and continue to do so.

 

Hope we honored Cpl Albert Gettings well today with this tough workout!
