Comments: Hello, I am hosting a Veterans Suicide Awareness Ruck. The purpose is to build cohesion and raise awareness of the veteran lives lost to suicide. There is limited parking, but a nearby parking garage. I can reserve some parking spots. I would bring the tent to change in if you can get access to it. I would recommend everyone be in kit by 0730 as that is when I am telling Soldiers to arrive. The opening remarks start at 0745 with people starting to step-off around 0815. I would like yall to stay till everyone has left and is on the way, but you can stay as long as you like. The event will host a small closing ceremony at 1315. I am not sure of the food we will have, but we will have a water station present if anyone needs something to drink. I am not currently sure if blasters are okay, but I will check into it so for now the answer is no blasters.

    Please put me down !! As a veteran it is an honor to troop during suicide prevention and awareness month . Also having lost a couple members of my family it’s the least I can do to honor their memories!!
