Holiday Ruck Supports Community

Soldiers with Echo Company, 1-321st Battalion, 2nd Brigade, 98th Training Division held a holiday ruck during their December battle training assembly in Ashville, N.C. The ruck march, and other local events, brought community members together while the Western Carolina Rescue Ministries, a nonprofit organization that assists those in need, gathered donations of toiletries, shoes and clothing.

Being part of the community event allowed the Soldiers to get involved, said Capt. Tyler M. Carey, Echo Company Commander. “We really wanted to do something for the community during the holidays. And this turned out to be a really good experience for our Soldiers and the Mission was very grateful.”
