A suicide bomber killed seven CIA officers and one Jordanian officer at a remote base in southeastern Afghanistan on December 30, 2009 after posing as a potential informant reporting on Al Qaeda. Seven new stars will be etched onto the memorial wall at the CIA where every star represents grieving friends, family and colleagues dedicated to fight against the enemy, forever in their name.
Killed in the attack were CIA officers Jennifer Lynne Matthews, 45; Scott Michael Roberson, 39; Harold E. Brown Jr., 37; Darren LaBonte, 35; Elizabeth Hanson, 30; and security contractors Jeremy Jason Wise, 35, and Dane Clark Paresi, 46.
“The Seven”
Seven rounds for time of:
7 Handstand push-ups
7 Thrusters (135/95)
7 Knees to elbows
7 Deadlifts (245/155)
7 Burpees
7 Kettlebell swings (32/24)
7 Pull-ups
*Compare to 7/22/2017
Coaches note: have people share equipment (all DL and thrusters need to be on platform or on crash mats for thrusters), sharing equipment will greatly increase set-up and break down. Then run a 1 min stagger, faster athlete first.
