5 For The Fallen : Memorial Day Honor Ruck
The 2nd Annual 5 For The Fallen Memorial March is a Memorial Day ruck held Monday, May 25, 2026, at the USS Cod in Cleveland, Ohio. The event gathers Active Duty Service Members, Veterans, and Civilians for a commemorative ruck in honor of service members who died in the line of duty. Participation supports the mission of T.A.P.S., the Tragedy Assistance Program for Survivors.

Perks listed for participants include a commemorative ruck patch, an option to purchase a soft-fit short sleeve shirt, and post-ruck snacks. Packet pick-up, a presentation with the national anthem, and finish line festivities are part of the schedule at the USS Cod site, and activities return to the USS Cod after the ruck.
