The first UFRC of the year graduated on November 18, 2011 at the RTI. The students enjoyed the new updates, picked up a slew of tools to take back to their units, and endured some grueling PT sessions!

Have an excuse not to workout? Tell it to 100-year old, Fauja Singh, who finished a marathon this weekend...

Operational Fitness Trainers Course

12-16 September 2011, Ft. Hood, TX

SGT Garton (UFRC, 2175th MP CO) and I attended the OFTC last week. The course was outstanding and I got some great ideas for the Warrior Spirit and UFRC courses, as well as for personal and unit fitness in garrison and deployed environments. The instructors were very knowledgeable and the facilities were top notch.
