1/25 Brothers In Arms 11K Memorial Ruck honoring "The Eleven" 2026

The 1/25 Brothers in Arms 11K Memorial Ruck honors the 10 United States Marines and 1 Navy Corpsman who made the ultimate sacrifice during the 1st Battalion, 25th Marines 2006 deployment to Iraq. JOIN THE MISSION on Sunday, October 25, at 11:00 AM at Doyle Field 206 Priest St in Leominster, Massachusetts as we honor and remember these men for their service to their country. Uniform of the day will be Boots & Utes or SILKIES. If you don't have either, no worries! Regular workout clothes are fine! 25% of the proceeds raised will be donated to the 1st Battalion, 25th Marines Association to support its fundraising and charitable efforts. These funds will benefit the 1/25 Marine Association Scholarship and other activities dedicated to fostering the well-being of our Navy, Marine Corps, and Gold Star Family communities. All donations are tax-deductible. In addition to registering for the ruck, you can elevate your involvement by becoming a RUCK SPONSOR. Each Sponsor / Team will carry a rucksack representing one of the 11 fallen service members and commit to a fundraising goal of $1,000 in support of the mission. Each Sponsor / Team will be provided a memorial bib that can be placed on his or her pack. The bib will have a picture of one of the fallen Marines or Corpsman, name and rank, hometown, and KIA date.
