Marine pursues a life of physical fitness for himself and others
Marine Corps Sgt. Michael Eckert rests after completing the preliminary 2016 High Intensity Tactical Training Competition at Marine Corps Air Station Iwakuni, Japan, May 17, 2016. The three-event course tested competitors’ endurance, speed, agility and stamina. As the first place winner, Eckert will be traveling to MCAS Miramar in August to compete against other active-duty U.S. Marines from across the world at the 2016 HITT Athlete Championship.
