Servicemember Field Test (Fundraiser 2)

Try a modern readiness challenge shaped by an Army older than the United States itself — founded June 14, 1775.

Our prototype run from August 2026 involved lifting a random 3 year old onto the platform. Don’t worry—by the time you report, it will be administered with the full precision of the official Army directive. We’ll have plenty of NSN: 8105‑00‑242‑1359 burlap sandbags teeming with you guessed it. 

A U.S. paratrooper often jumps with 60–80lbs of gear and experiences high ground‑reaction forces — a practical equivalent is stepping off a 10‑foot platform onto hard ground. For vets out there with worn knees or a tight lower back who want to test, we've got you covered, we switch out the run portions with lower‑impact off‑road kick scooters.

The National Guard's birthday, December 13, 1636, predates the founding of the United States by nearly 140 years. Its roots trace back to the citizen militias of the Massachusetts Bay Colony, making it the oldest military organization in America's history.
