VIKINGS NEVER QUIT!

The 502nd MRBC proudly joined over a thousand Soldiers at Brooks Parade Field on June 13 to celebrate the U.S. Army’s 250th Birthday with a motivating early morning run! 🇺🇸💪

Families, kids, and even a few four-legged battle buddies joined the formation, showing true Army spirit. Special shoutout to the Fort Knox Fire Department for the cooling spray along the route—it was a hit!

From start to finish, the Viking Soldiers ran with pride, strength, and unity.
Happy 250th Birthday, U.S. Army!
