Beachwood Participates in “New Jersey Run for the Fallen� Event Beachwood, NJ - On September 24th, the Beachwood Fire Department, along with the Beachwood First Aid Squad and Beachwood Police Department, had the honor of participating in one of the stops for the New Jersey Run for the Fallen JUMP TO FILE# (NJRFTF) event. 112316109 The NJRFTF consists of runners who are all active duty military personnel and support crew, whose mission is to run one mile for every New Jersey service member killed in Operation Iraqi Freedom, Enduring Freedom and New Dawn. Each mile is dedicated to one of the fallen with a distinctive Hero Marker, which is placed in a prominent position. The leg of this run ended at the Beachwood First Aid Squad, where a marker was placed for SSG Jason M. Butkus. The runners stopped, saluted the flag and marker, and then presented a flag to the Butkus family. - BEACHWOOD FD
