Today’s Comanche #RED FRIDAY beatdown was in memorial to CPL Dillon C Baldridge who was killed in action in the Peka Valley of the Nangahar Province of Afghanistan on June 10, 2017.

In honor of this American hero, 13 PAX exercised to our fullest ability – giving our own small measure of pain out of respect for Dillon’s “never quit” attitude.
After a recognition of his military career, we conducted a very brief mosey/warmup. Then, in honor of SGT Baldridge’s (promoted posthumously) final earthly military unit, The Rakassans of the 101st Airborne, we selected rocks for a total body beat down. A miserable time was had by all in the wood chip pits and many left the pit in fine “sugar cookie” form. Another short mosey and we honored Mary with an assortment of planks and ab exercises.
