Marines and coalition troops cross the Maj. Megan McClung 5-kilometer memorial run finish line at Camp Leatherneck, Afghanistan, Aug. 13. “It’s always great to run in memory of someone,” said Master Sgt. Michael Noble, the senior enlisted advisor for Marine Wing Headquarters Squadron 2. “The amount of people that ran today for her is great.” Maj. McClung, an avid triathlete, was the first female Marine officer killed in Iraq when an IED struck her Humvee in Ramadi on December 6, 2006. (U.S. Marine Corps photo by Cpl. Samantha H. Arrington)
