Three Wise Men



After the September 11 attacks on the US, Jeremy Wise joined the Navy and became a SEAL. Ben Wise, already in the Army, became a member of the legendary Green Berets. Beau Wise followed his brothers and joined the Marine Corps infantry. Together they served over 1600 days in Iraq in Afghanistan. Tragically Jeremy was killed by suicide bomber in Afghanistan on December 30, 2009. Just over two years later, Ben was killed in a fire fight in Afghanistan on January 10, 2012. Beau remained on active duty in the United States Marine Corps. 
The workout was originally posted on threewisemen.org, which has since joined Headstrong, “a national organization that provides post 9/11 veterans with cost-free, stigma-free and bureaucracy-free mental health care.”
