Congratulations Fred on your awesome finish at the Patriot’s Festival 5K. Click here to read the full backblast:
“Today we ran as an honor to and in remembrance of the men and women who paid the ultimate sacrifice so we can enjoy our freedoms today. We acknowledge that all gave some and some gave all. It was a privilege to honor our fallen heroes by pushing our new friend and Korean Conflict Veteran, Fred. I cannot think of a more fitting way to spend the morning than sharing fellowship and camaraderie with the men I consider my brothers.
Fred was a trooper, riding strong as the Chair Commander being pushed by men of all service branches. It brought a tear to my eye and a smile to my face to see him grin as General David Guyton pushed his chariot at what seemed like Mach 2. It warmed my heart to see men, women, and children smile and clap as the flags flew high and Fred sped by. Thank you Speed for Need for the opportunity to push the chariots in honor of our fallen soldiers.”
