8/7/2012 - SEYMOUR JOHNSON AIR FORCE BASE, N.C. -- Nine Airmen from across the 916th Air Refueling Wing decided to put fitness first and get their figures ready for summer.
But what's the fun in that without a little competition?
Participants in the 916th Air Refueling Wing's first Biggest Loser contest sweetened the challenge by putting in a bit of their own money to help motivate themselves and congratulate a winner in style.
In the end Staff Sgt. Dan Drake, 916th Force Support Squadron Services/Wing Fitness Coordinator lost 24 pounds over the 30-day challenge earning him the title of 916th Biggest Loser.
Drake was followed closely by Lt. Col. Corey Brown, but in the end Drake lost the most percentage of body weight.
