On January 5 2020, Jackson Winkeler made the ultimate sacrifice. Bullets may have killed the physical body of Jackson, but they did not harm what he left behind; his superb service, the influence he had on others, his integrity, the results of his heart of gold, and the love he had for his fellow man.
A year after this tragedy, we, as first responders, vowed to march 6 miles in his honor every anniversary. Rain, sleet, snow, or shine.
On Monday, January 05, 2026, we welcome ALL first responders (law enforcement, EMS, fire, corrections, dispatcher, etc) to ruck for our fallen. First responders will walk six miles in full gear to memorialize PSO Jackson R Winkeler, killed in the line of duty six years ago. We will meet at Latta PD at 08:00 and the walk will begin at 08:30!
