We do this WOD today in honor of Captain Jason Holbrook. Our efforts will be with the reminder that he gave his life so that we may live with the often taken for granted freedoms we have.

U.S. Army Captain Jason Holbrook,

28, of Burnet, Texas, assigned to 1st Battalion, 3rd Special Forces Group (Airborne), based out of Fort Bragg, North Carolina, was killed on July 29th, 2010 in Tsagay, Afghanistan when insurgents attacked his vehicle with an improvised explosive device.

Those who knew Holbrook said he was a class act, a good student who worked so hard. He graduated from West Point then followed in his father’s footsteps by joining the military and eventually the elite Special Forces. He was a 28-year-old newlywed with so much ahead of him.

He is survived by his wife Heather Holbrook and his parents Joan and James Holbrook.
