Operation Redwing
June 28, 2005
On June 28, 2005, deep behind enemy lines east of Asadabad in the Hindu Kush of Afghanistan, a very committed four-man Navy SEAL team was conducting a reconnaissance mission at the unforgiving altitude of approximately 10,000 feet. The SEALs, Lt. Michael Murphy, Gunner’s Mate 2nd Class (SEAL) Danny Dietz, Sonar Technician 2nd Class (SEAL) Matthew Axelson and Hospital Corpsman 2nd Class (SEAL) Marcus Luttrell had a vital task.  The four SEALs were scouting Ahmad Shah – a terrorist in his mid-30s who grew up in the adjacent mountains just to the south.

So after the most recent heat wave, many convos with some of you crossfitters both in and out of class( this is for you afternoon ladies!) and the fact that most of us are discovering the beauty of this already, i bring you an article about shirtless wods at the box. This was written by a guy named wes who owns and runs crossfit austin (along with a guy named boone). wes started out right here in college station as a client and moved to austin to pursue bigger and better things. Anyway, he wrote this some time ago, and although i've edited it somewhat for family friendly content, please read it, laugh, and take away what he is trying to say which is simply, shirts aren't required at any point during a workout.....enjoy!

Take your shirt off, wave it around your head like a helicopter. (credit to wes)

I’m going assume that all of you out there in cyberspace are either CrossFitters or involved in CrossFit somehow. As CrossFitters there are a few things that we all seem to take a great deal of pride in: taking pictures in front of things in a handstand, putting kettlebells on t-shirts, and buying shoes that really accentuate our toes. The list goes on and on. Well, I think its about to time to address an important issue in this community: as a CrossFitter when, why, and where do I remove my shirt? Is there a bigger threat to XFit (don’t call it that) than the unsolicited, unmerited, unAmerican shirt removal? Me thinks not.
