Join the U.S. Army Fort Campbell community on Nov. 1 as we hold the Hero and Remembrance Run, Walk or Roll - this years Fort Campbell Run for the Fallen. This commemorative 5K and 1 mile walk/run will take place at Town Center, directly across from 101st Airborne Division (Air Assault) Headquarters. Runners and walkers will be received at 7 a.m. and the opening ceremonies will begin at 8 a.m. Runners will depart at 8:15 a.m. followed by the walkers at 8:30 a.m. There is no registration for this event. If you want to wear a bib for the run, there are three options to choose from. You can find the links to print the bibs on the Fort Campbell MWR website, fortcampbellmwr, under the flyer for the event. Boots have been collected from military service members across Fort Campbell and abroad to honor our fallen service members who died in the support of the Global War on Terror since Sept. 11, 2001. This display of combat boots honors the memories and sacrifice of the military men and women who gave their lives while serving our country. Each boot is adorned with a photo of a service member, date of death and which conflict served or location stationed. The boots will be on display on the Division Headquarters lawn until Oct. 31, at which time they will line the 5K route for the Run, Walk or Roll. Participants are urged to run/walk in memory of fallen Soldiers. Strollers and bicycles are allowed but please do not bring pets. For more information about the Hero and Remembrance Run, Walk or Roll, please call Fort Campbell ACS Survivor Outreach Services at (270) 798-0272. (NT) Fort Campbell ACS
