Nate
Think about Nate. His son is 2+ years old right now, just like my little buddy Max. Except Nate's son doesn't have a daddy around, his daddy gave his life for our freedoms. Heavy. Painful. I said it before and I'll say it again, if you have HBO, search for the show "Wartorn" and record it.

BIDDLE
He displayed conspicuous gallantry and intrepidity in action against the enemy near Soy, Belgium, on 23 and 24 December 1944. Serving as lead scout during an attack to relieve the enemy-encircled town of Hotton, he aggressively penetrated a densely wooded area, advanced 400 yards until he came within range of intense enemy rifle fire, and within 20 yards of enemy positions killed 3 snipers with unerring marksmanship. Courageously continuing his advance an additional 200 yards, he discovered a hostile machinegun position and dispatched its 2 occupants. He then located the approximate position of a well-concealed enemy machinegun nest, and crawling forward threw hand grenades which killed two Germans and fatally wounded a third. After signaling his company to advance, he entered a determined line of enemy defense, coolly and deliberately shifted his position, and shot 3 more enemy soldiers. Undaunted by enemy fire, he crawled within 20 yards of a machinegun nest, tossed his last hand grenade into the position, and after the explosion charged the emplacement firing his rifle. When night fell, he scouted enemy positions alone for several hours and returned with valuable information which enabled our attacking infantry and armor to knock out 2 enemy tanks. At daybreak he again led the advance and, when flanking elements were pinned down by enemy fire, without hesitation made his way toward a hostile machinegun position and from a distance of 50 yards killed the crew and 2 supporting riflemen. The remainder of the enemy, finding themselves without automatic weapon support, fled panic stricken. Pfc. Biddle's intrepid courage and superb daring during his 20-hour action enabled his battalion to break the enemy grasp on Hotton with a minimum of casualties.
Rest day lunges
What the heck... had to post cos' I'm an addict. Had Mike and Heath back over this morning. We swept and shoveled the (small amount of) snow off of the driveway, cranked up the tunes, and did the 400M walking lunge up and down the driveway which is on a grade. Also did some tabata pushups. Legs will be sore tomorrow night for SURE! Need to make up the BE/WPU WOD tmrw or so... depending on what comes up on the main site. Reluctant cos hamstrings will be a mess from lunges. Throwing 90 BE's at them might give me the rhabdo :-)
