NMS: After the Convergence MABA Day 1, YHC felt completely wiped out, and was a little surprised yesterday to see “DTH” signed up for the Forge. This, my brothers, is the power of accountability at work. Sign up ahead of time, and no matter how much you’re temped to fartsack, guys are depending on you to lead. All the PAX were encouraged this morning to sign up on the Q sheet. AWESOME work put in by the PAX to conquer Day 2 of “Make America Burpee Again.” It is truly SO much easier to get back up when you have awesome brothers on either side of you. Speaking of awesome brothers, WELCOME BACK to Fresh Prince!!! New year, new you! Excited to see what 2025 brings to this awesome group of men. Yours AYE! ~DTH
