1st Air Force hosts 5K Ruck for Hunger

TYNDALL AIR FORCE BASE, Fla. - Maj. Troy Lindig, 1st Air Force Communications Directorate, transfers cans from his rucksack to a box for transport to community food pantries and agencies in Panama City after he finished the second annual “5K Ruck March For Hunger” May 4 here. Military and civilian members of 1st AF and the 601st Air Operations Center and their family members participated in the event to raise awareness about hunger along with food donations for community food pantries and agencies in the Panama City area. Nearly 100 people donned 30+ lb. ruck sacks, back packs or donated food to support the food drive which raised 1,911 lbs. The drive began last year when a 1st Air Force Airman saw a statistic stating that numerous students in Bay County were going to school hungry. (Air Force photo by Mary McHale)
