FORGED FRIDAY

Today is Forged Friday at New Species CrossFit. The men and women that keep us safe and free are who we WOD for today. All First Responders as well as our Armed Services Personnel are faced with the daily responsibility of keeping us out of harm’s way. Their threats are many. Our threats, thanks to them, are few.
As coaches and athletes, we ask that you please make it a point to thank these brave inidividuals for their service. For without their protection, our country would not be safe or free and we would likely not be here today.
So as we carry these thoughts forward, please focus your very best physical effort in order to honor: Army Staff Sgt. Jeremy E. Bessa, who died February 20, 2009 while serving during Operation Enduring Freedom. Staff Sergeant Bessa was 26 years of age from Woodridge, Illinois; assigned to 1st Battalion, 3rd Special Forces Group (Airborne), Fort Bragg, N.C.; died Feb. 20, in Kandahar, Afghanistan, when his military vehicle was struck by an improvised explosive device followed by a small arms fire attack by enemy forces. Also killed was Army Master Sgt. David L. Hurt. Master Sergeant Hurt was 36 years of age, from Tucson, Arizona.
Please keep these Heroes in your heart and on your mind today as you train. Always support our Troops and First Responders and God Bless America!
