Today’s WOD is not a statement from the United States Air Force or the men and women of Luke AFB, and does not represent the opinions of such.  Today’s WOD does not pass judgement on law enforcement officials (as we know the great work they do on a daily basis), or make a statement on how someone should react to a situation.  Rather, this WOD is to honor a man who died a senseless death and hope that we as a world community can come to a better understanding and make this world a better place for the future.
