U.S. service members participate in the annual Norwegian Foot March at MacDill Air Force Base, Florida, April 24, 2025. The march, also known as the Marsjmerket, is a military endurance test originating in 1915, designed to assess the stamina of Norwegian soldiers. It involves an 18.6-mile ruck march, typically completed in under 4.5 hours, carrying a 25-pound rucksack in military uniform and boots. The march serves as a test of strength and endurance and earns a foreign service badge if completed to standard. More than 200 service members from MacDill participated in the march.
