Lets keep Trevors memory alive by participating in the May 25th event

Specialist Trevor Anthony Win’E, of Orange County, California was born 24 September 1981, the youngest child of three. He was an American soldier and a loving son, brother, and uncle, who was loved by many friends and family.

Trevor loved to play hockey, snowboard, SCUBA dive, and loved going to the mountains and river. He was known for his infectious smile and adorable dimples. He played soldier as a child, and his dream was to serve his country. He attended Maranatha Christian Academy and graduated from Calvary Chapel High School, in the spring of 2000. He attended Concordia University, and worked for Chemco, installing chemical operating systems, until he joined the Army of 1 May 2002.

After graduating from Basic Training at Fort Benning, Georgia, Trevor studied his 92F MOS, Petroleum Specialist, at Fort Lee, Virginia. He arrived at Fort Lewis, 18 October 2002, and was assigned to the Petroleum Platoon, in the 24th Quartermaster Supply Company (24th QMS). He was an essential player in Fort Lewis fueling missions, and participated in the Corps Warfighter Exercise, the 1st Brigade JRTC and NTC rotations, and the JLOTS refuel mission, at Bremerton Naval Base.

The 24th QMS deployed to Iraq, with the 44th Corps Support Batallion (44th CSB), in November 2003. The unit provided critical POL support to the 3rd Brigade, through Fuel Systems Supply Points (FSSP) and refuel operations at the Kuwait/Iraq border. SPC Win’E and his fellow soldiers were given a twelve hour notice to move out from Camp Udardie to the border, to provide fuel support to the brigade and the CSB, so they could conduct thier tactical road march into Iraq. He also worked at the FSSP, receiving thousands of gallons of fuel from the Turkish trucks delivering fuel from Turkey. Because of his professional knowledge and ability to make any mission happen, SPC Win’E was handpicked to serve as the petroleum specialist on the mission at Forward Operation Bases Diamondback, Freedom, and FUlda. For his outstanding marksmanship and soldier skills, he was also chosen to be the Gunner on the company’s gun truck.

On 30 April 2004, while serving as the Gunner on the lead truck in a convoy, SPC Win’E was injured in an attack by an improvised explosive device (IED). On 1 May 2004, he died from injuries sustained from that attack. He is survived by his parents, Rick and Debi Win’E; brothers and sisters Todd and Jenny Win’E, Tracy Hardin; nieces Madison, Tyler, and Lilly; grandparents Donn and Ruth Ann Curran, and Gerry and Joan Win’E; and numerous aunts, uncles, and cousins; and his beloved dog, a boxer named Betty.

Guys I need one more lock to make our team for this event. So far we have Matty,Dave and Eric and I need one more to make the A team. So step up and volunteer. Man Child, Jake? You guys available? If your not participating we would still love to have you show up in force and represent OCC in the SoCal CrossFit community. We have to show we mean business! The 3rd annual Trevor Win′E Memorial Challenge is a CrossFit Team WOD designed to support our active duty mmilitary personnel who are currently deployed in the middle east. Each participating team donates one cooling vest (Mist-n-go) to deployed service person in Iraq or Afghanistan. Your team can donate your vest to any deployed service man or woman! Your affiliate can also sponsor a unit and we can take care of a group.

Last years Trevor Win\′E (pronounced Win-Nay) CrossFit Challenge raised over $51,000 and the cause was able to donate 364 cooling vests to the folks who need them most. Join the cause and do it for the heroes!

The WOD: Teams of four complete the following:

300 Pull ups

400 Push ups

500 Sit ups

Execution: This is a team effort so it is accumulative reps. Only two teams members can exercise at a time, and all reps must be completed before moving on to the next movement (i.e. finish all pull ups before moving on to the push ups). FORM COUNTS!!
