Run For the Fallen will honor 1LT Michael J. Cleary, one of the fine men the 1st Battalion 15th Infantry Regiment lost in combat during Operation Iraqi Freedom III, as well as the many others to have fallen during Operation Iraqi Freedom. Though I will not be cleared out of the Army in time to start the run with the group, and have to be back in school before it ends – I will be altering my motorcycle route around the country so I can run at least a mile for every Sledgehammer soldier to have fallen during Operation Iraqi Freedom.
I’d like to ask anyone interested to support this in any way they can, run a few miles – run all the miles, bike, motorcycle, volunteer in some way. If I ever saw an honorable cause, this is it. There is more information on the website I linked.

Do you have a set day to return?
I am looking forward to the reports from your ride, what an enviable opportunity.
Take care and hope to continue reading your blog as a civilian soon.
I think that their families would be very happy and honored to know that you have not nor never will forget these fallen comrades.
Take care,
Stay safe and alert,
Love,
Mom
