Note: This event has already passed.

Head to Lake Garda with us for an intense 40-mile hike as both current and former American Soldiers carry on their respect and admiration for the men of 10th Mountain Division and COL William O. Darby, founder of the American Rangers who died in Torbole on April 30, 1945. We will head off along a 40-mile march that will end in the northern Italian village where COL Darby was killed by enemy fire.
