Pics from the Caldwell March

This is us on the way there, we were up late last night.








This is C/Capt Lund (left) anf C/First Seargent Jablonski (right) They were up even later ;)




This is the first section of the march, I am carrying the closest orange flag, (guidon).




This is our first rest area, about 4 miles down the trail. I am still holding the guidon. (Everyone is gathered around my 2 lbs of gummy bears.)

This is our second stop, just before lunch. We are gathered at the foot of the mountian we are about to climb. From left to right (not including the half heads at the bottom) David Nolen; Andrew Ton; Matt Zinn; Cimmeron Hill; Doug Mead; Tim Kidd; Lucas Reed (I think); Matt 'Killer' Miller; and Me.

Our road gaurds, C/CPL Grimcey and C/CPL Avenceina (sophamores, and cool guys).

Our Cadre that could make it, From L to R, C/Capt Matt Lund; C/SSgt Robert Merrill; C/FSgt Frank Jablonski. (Not pictured, C/SSgt Mark Settle had a twisted ankle; C/SSgt Mike Tekesky was fired, twice)


That little house in the backround is only a half mile (or so) away without elevation changes, it was really steep. Our TC is in the foreground.

A TAC guy (C/SSgt Gibson) carries a log up just to make it harder.





This us at a water break, from L to R: Chris Novitch; Doug Mead; Cimmeron Hill; David Nolen; Ben Huff.



Kilo Battery and a sweet view...









Lunch at the top of the mountain, from L to R (standing): Dan Langford (the Marine Option guy); Kevin Wood (my new roommate); Ian Murdoch, Genius; David Nolen; Matt Zinn; C/FSgt Jablonski; Unkown; C/SSgt Merrill; C/Cpt Lund; DeAnthony Heart; Ben Huff. Seated: Cimmeron Hill; Lucas Reed; Andrew Ton; Matt Miller; Gina Consoli; Unkown, maybe me.

C/SSgt Benjamin Chinsky and I, eating lunch( I didn't see the camera coming and Chinsky is an EMT.)


Waiting to board the busses for the rest of the trip home, in silence, where we played face PT and glass licking games.....

Well sorry for the hugh post but I thought these pictures were cool and you would all like to see them, they double as an incentive to get high speed too.......jk I know that it is a bad situation.

Anyway have fun looking at these, they are sort of entertaining.
