COT
I grew up a-dreamin’ of bein’ a cowboy
And lovin’ the cowboy ways…my heroes have always been cowboys.
Willie Nelson said these words in one of his more popular songs. For me, however, my heroes have always been Veterans.
Cowboys are cool, but cowboys are fighting for themselves.
Veterans on the other hand get up every morning fighting for someone else.
Fighting for someone they may not know.
Fighting for someone they might completely disagree with.
Fighting for someone to have the right to disagree with them.
Fighting for you and for me.
I’ve also heard the phrase “you shouldn’t meet your heroes”.
Whoever decided that made sense must have met someone that truly let them down.
That’s the thing about Veteran’s, its almost impossible for them to let you down; because, at some point in their life they made a commitment of willingness to give their greatest gift — life– EVERY person here today.
Please, Please thank a veteran today if you have the opportunity.

Each rep count after the announced veteran was for their age.
BearCrawl length was based on the 38th Parallel in which the cease fire occurred for the Korean War. The Marine Corps was the main force used in this “Forgotten War”
Sprinting after our “Army Representatives” was based upon the number of soldiers serving in a Platoon at 36.
Caraco after our “Air Force Representatives” was based upon the date of their birthday which was the 18th of September.
Rep Count + Yardage Distance = 866 which is 245 (Age of Marine Corps) less than 1111.
