I got placed into it from my unit. It's a ruck march across the northern part of South Korea to commemorate the 85 miles that the 9th Infantry Regiment "Manchu's" marched in the early 1900's. Luckily it isn't that far anymore. I'm really excited to go, being one of only 4 chosen from my unit. Just kinda wanted to brag on myself a little bit, anyways, wish me luck!

The Bataan Death March was 85 miles if I remember correctly. I was at the Corridor Island in April of this year. It was a freaking awesome site to be. -
Re: Manchu Mile
They do it now for 25 miles, in 1900 they marched 85 miles. Good job searching on the internet though.
Search better next time. http://www.army.mil/article/23571/__...25_mile_march/Team NoVa

Re: Manchu Mile
I am stoked to do it, it's apparently grueling, but I believe I am prepared.

Re: Manchu Mile
Good luck flaming. 25 miles isn't too bad. We do 15-20 mile marches often.
