From Sidney Cline, Founder of Can Ruck

Before I was born, my Dad deployed to Iraq in 03 and 04 for Operation Iraqi Freedom. He later transferred to the Air Force and deployed again in support of Operation Inherent Resolve. Through his service, my Dad taught me the true cost of freedom and that we owe a debt of gratitude to the military personnel who came before us. CAN RUCK is my attempt to repay even a small part of that debt—to honor their sacrifices and to give back to those who have given so much.
