color:black”>The Three Wise Men Foundation was created in honor of the Wise brothers:  Jeremy Wise, Ben Wise, and Beau Wise.  Jeremy was a Navy SEAL who was killed in action in Afghanistan.  Ben was an Army Green Beret who died in combat just over two years after Jeremy. Beau Wise remains on active duty in the Marine Corps.  The Three Wise Men Tribute is a unique workout experience that honors Jeremy and Ben-those veterans who gave that last full measure of devotion, but raises money for transition programs that support the Beau Wises of the world—those veterans who survived combat and are now trying to survive the peace that follows.  

color:black”>If you work out at a local Crossfit affiliate you can sign up to do the same workout in your home gym on Veterans Day (Wednesday, November 11th).  .  You will be supporting a great cause and also get a cool Three Wise Men t-shirt.
