Gordon Swain, Dignified Transfer officer in charge, brings up the rear during the 436th Security Forces Squadron's 11th Annual Ruck March held March 20. The annual 6.2 mile march is a fundraiser to honor the veterans of the Korean War who fought in the Battle of the Chosin Reservoir. This battle was fought between Army Lt. Gen. Edward M. "Ned" Almond's X Corps, comprised of approximately 20,000 Army and Marine Troops, against 120,000 Chinese troops. "About seven of us participated in the march for camaraderie, fitness and to give back to the veterans in commemoration of what they did in Korea," said Staff Sgt. Herbert Dungca, AFMAO Dignified Transfer member. "It was a perfect day, but it was definitely a challenge walking six miles with a 30-pound load. We didn't win but everyone finished and had fun."
