Former Dickinson lacrosse player, Albie Masland, has decided to put life on hold for the next few months to run from San Diego to Washington, DC in honor of the Travis Manion Foundation and Bullets2Badges. It is also worth mentioning that Travis Manion, one of the foundations Albie is supporting, was the best friend of Navy lacrosse captain Brendan Looney who also gave his life defending our country. Albie is currently on his way out to SD right now and will be documenting the entire journey online. To learn more, visit http://operationamerithon.com/
Monday night, the nightly news for CBS and NBC paid tribute to true American heroes. Travis Manion and former Navy lacrosse standout Brendan Looney were roommates at the naval academy and became as close as brothers. One became a Marine stationed in Iraq, the other, a Navy Seal in Afghanistan. Both have died and were laid to rest side-by-side in Arlington's National Cemetery. View Videos...
