9/11 First responder

9/11 FIRST RESPONDER.

There are too many stories surrounding the unfortunate events of 9/11. According to NYMag.com, the 9/11 response was, first and foremost, a Fire Department operation:

In a standard single-alarm fire, a total of six units—three engines, two ladders, and a battalion chief—respond. A five-alarm fire brings 44 units. September 11 was on the order of five five-alarm responses, involving more than 214 FDNY units—112 engines, 58 ladder trucks, five rescue companies, seven squad companies, four marine units, dozens of chiefs, and numerous command, communication, and support units.

To remember the fallen and those first responders that rushed into the emergency, we offer you the 9/11 First Responder patch.

EARN THE PATCH.

The 9/11 First Responder patch can be earned by rucking up 9 flights of stairs - 11 times (9/11 get it?). The weight is rucker’s choice.

To bring this challenge to the next level, carry a sandbag over your shoulders to simulate the ‘fireman’ carry.

While doing so, be sure to use the hashtag #RucksOnParade and prove to us that you’re getting after it.
