I AM TOUGH RUCKING FOR AMERICA'S FALLEN MILITARY & FIRST RESPONDERS
This April, I’ll be participating in Tough Ruck Boston — a 26.2-mile ruck march, completed alongside fellow service members, first responders, and civilians. Our mission is simple: to honor and remember the Fallen by carrying their names with us, and to raise funds in support of the families they’ve left behind.
I’m proud to be rucking with my team from the New Hampshire National Guard – Granite Steel, and I’ll be carrying the names of several Soldiers who made the ultimate sacrifice:
SPC Peter Cameron, NH Army National Guard
MAJ Dave Connolly, KIA Afghanistan 2005
SSG Frank Gasper, KIA Iraq 2008
SSG Michael Simpson, KIA Afghanistan 2013
SSG Matthew Thompson, KIA Afghanistan 2016
SPC Peter Cameron proudly served in our very own New Hampshire National Guard. MAJ Connolly, SSG Gasper, SSG Simpson, and SSG Thompson all served alongside my father. These are names our family honors and remembers. It’s a privilege to carry them with me and complete this challenge as part of a team that represents strength, unity, and service.
Funds raised support the Military Friends Foundation, which provides direct assistance to Gold Star Families, wounded Veterans, and Service Members in need. Your tax-deductible donation helps ensure that those who have served — and their families — are supported in meaningful and lasting ways.
Thank you for your support
