11 men gathered on this RED Friday to honor fallen hero Ashley White. 1^st Lt. Ashley White Stumpf was killed during combat operations in Kandahar Province, Afghanistan on October 22, 2011 when the assault force she was supporting triggered an improvised explosive device. As a Cultural Support Team Member on her first deployment to Afghanistan, White selflessly served. Ashley’s actions exemplify the highest commitment to duty, honor, and country. In every instance she served with distinction in support of the Task Force and our great nation. Ashley is remembered not simply as an exemplary solider but as the best daughter, sister, wife and friend anyone could hope to have.

We grabbed the shovel flag and formed an Indian Run heading for the starting point of Chix Foot.

In honor of Ashley we did the Eagle’s Talon. The Eagle has 4 talons, so the course had 4 pain stations. The starting point was the top of hill at Linksland and North Green.

• Talon #3: run to bottom of hill on North Green and complete 24 LBCs
• Talon #4 run to bottom of hill at #10 and complete 9 Burpees

Repeat course until time is called at 06:05.
