The 15th Annual Fallen Defender Memorial Ruck March at Camp Bullis saw its biggest turn-out ever, following setbacks caused by the COVD-19 pandemic.
The memorial ruck march is an arduous event where service members honor and remember the selfless sacrifice made by other heroes.
“Today is our 15th Annual Fallen Defender, Fallen Ruck. We do this yearly. It’s our biggest event of the year here, at the 343 Training Squadron here on Lackland,” Sasha Euley, Tech Sgt., USAF said. With all the excitement and energy, the service men and women gathered really for one reason only, Tech Sgt. Ramir Looney said.
“We are here for a common goal, a common reason, and that is to honor those who have fallen and those have paid the ultimate sacrifice for us all for us right now“Our minimum for the ruck or the backpacks that they have on was a 30-pound ruck and then we know that we have some overachievers and not overachievers, but some people who will go above and beyond.
