An award started by Iraqi War casualty PAO Major Megan McClung will be awarded to the last place finisher at the Marine Corps Marathon October 28. The "Paul the Penguin Award" which honors the effort and determination demanded of every marathon finisher began in 2006 when the Major began it at the Marine Corps Marathon satellite race at the Al Asad air base in the al-Anbar province of Iraq. Now, her parents continue the ritual.
