First Sergeant performs Taekwando naked in front of mirror

Filed · 1543

Sources confirm that in the early hours of the morning, First Sergeant Jack Washington performed a 4th degree yellow belt Taekwondo kata, completely nude, in front of his hotel room's full body mirror.

Washington, an avid martial arts enthusiast, was preparing for a big exam next week at the Rising Dragon martial arts studio in Modesto, California. A successful score on his examinations will see him rise from the amateurish ranks of yellow belt to the esteemed company of the dojo's red belts.
