Organized by: The Sgt. Bruce Cogley Foundation aka THE BRUCE

Member since 2024 · Hosted 33 event(s) on Competition Corner

Sgt. Bruce Cogley served with the 101st Airborne Division during Vietnam. His time with the unit led him to serve on Hill 937 aka Hamburger Hill. The battle for Hill 937 lasted for ten days from May 10, 1969, and May 20th, 1969. Bruce was wounded on May 18th, 1969, the eighth day of the battle. Sgt. Cogley, like many other veterans whose battles continued beyond the war, ended his personal battle with PTSD on February 20, 1992 by taking his own life. This workout is to remember Sgt. Cogley, as well as, all other Vietnam veterans who lost their battle or continue to fight the war at home. The Bruce WOD (WorkOut of the Day) is the primary fundraiser for the Sgt. Bruce Cogley Foundation providing Fitness Scholarships to veterans.
