BOM
G6 shared about the Tomb of the Unknown Solider.  He then prayed and we ended with Taps.

MOLESKIN
31 PAX including 1 FNG came out to a gloomy Asylum to get better and honor the men and women who have fallen in battle.  We took on the Team RWB 21 Guns challenge and added some more for good measure (if it doesn’t challenge you it won’t change).  The highlight of the morning was moseying to the East Tennessee Veteran’s Memorial Cemetery.  We made our way to the top of the main hill and circled up for the COT.  Men who have lost friends and family during battle shared their names, branch of service.  We then had our PAX’s own Wardaddy G6, himself retired Air Force, share during the BOM and lead us in prayer.  We ended our time with a moment of silence and the playing of Taps.

It was a great morning.  As men arrived a thick fog settled over the park and it set the mood perfectly.  This was a special morning.  The men went hard and no man was left behind…just as it should be.

Hope you came ready to work…

BOM
P-nut reminded everyone of the business that surrounds them in everyday life. Work, stress, hurt and worldly pursuits can distract us from our purpose. We need to elevate our thinking and focus on Christ to help us become better men. Get out of the world and into Jesus.  P-nut prayed us out.

MOLESKIN
Lots of spirited mumblechatter on this unseasonably chilly May morning. Good vibes from good men.
