View Full Version : Attitude and Commitment - Mark Holbert
Great piece on NBC's Today this morning which shows SF vet and double-amputee SFC Mark Holbert (formerly 1/3rd SFG) competing in the American Odeyssey Relay Races.
It's all about attitude and commitment.

He is a great example of what it means to be a Warrior and to persevere through adversity. He is living the "can-do, won't-quit, never-give-up" attitude that is expressed by Warriors. Well done.

That just made my day! Thanks for the post and video.
Mark's strength (and that of his family) is incredible. This piece only captures a fraction of what a great man he is.

MAJ Mike Erwin has put a lot of effort to this and there is something you all can do. Please look into how they approach it differently. Don't just think of a monetary donation, see if there is a wounded veteran you could help in your area.
It was good to see him in his current capacity. Much praise goes to his Sr. Medic Craig for keeping him and Dave alive. Mark's perseverance is awesome, and I can assure you this isn't the last good thing you hear of him.
A true inspiration to us all.
Thank you for your service and sacrifice brother.
