We would like to congratulate all nine members of Operation RUSH for completing the Marine Corp Marathon in Washington D.C.! Not only did each team member finish the 26.2 mile race, as a team they were able to fundraise $40,000 for Honor Flight!!! Thank you and Congratulations!
MISSION ACCOMPLISHED!!!

Operation RUSH would like to thank all of our wonderful sponsors and everyone who has supported us the last six months. It has been a great experience for us all and we hope our efforts will benefit many of these incredible veterans awaiting this trip. What RUSH was able to accomplish is only "Partial Payment" for the great sacrifices made by our Greatest Generation. We are honored to have represented them and proud to have been a part of such a great cause.
Thank you Honor Flight Network of Kansas City for giving us the opportunity to be a part of your family, it has been an experience we will never forget. Thank you Veterans for all you have given us, we love you all and may God bless each and every one of you. When asked why we run 26.2 miles, we will continue to respond, 
                "We can, because they DID!"
