Today Mr. Hoch came over since Mr. Bruns was gone. Mr. Hoch told a story about how when he was in the NFL Michael Durrant came to his camp, and he talked about some motivational and strategy things to keep the players spirits up because it was really tough on the players' bodies. Durrant is an American pilot and author who was held prisoner for eleven days in 1993 after a raid in Mogadishu, Somalia. His copter was shot with a RPG and went into a tail spin, and 3 of his partners died. Durrant almost died. After the rst of his team was killed he was taken as a POW. He was constantly being moved by the drug cartel that took him. After he was rescued by the US he was in the hospital for 2 months. The military took his wings away, so he couldn'tfly anymore. He tried to regain his wings by running a 10k to proove the military that he still fly. He eventually got his wings back. Now he gives around 300 speeches a year.
