“We few, we happy few, we band of brothers; For he to-day that sheds his blood with me Shall be my brother; be he ne'er so vile, This day shall gentle his condition; And gentlemen in England now-a-bed Shall think themselves accurs'd they were not here, And hold their manhoods cheap whilst any speaks That fought with us upon Saint Crispin's day."

-William Shakespeare, "Henry V"


18 years ago today Mike's Team was hit by a roadside bomb while on a Diplomatic Mission in the Gaza Strip. This is the first year that we will not do their Hero WOD on the anniversary. Stay the course. I will do it alone today. Just remember them and their sacrifice.
