PATTEN, Maine — Despite a brief morning snow shower, a large group turned out Saturday morning for the Spc. Dustin J. Harris Memorial Mile walk/run in downtown Patten.

In total, 202 participants, both in person and through “virtual walks elsewhere” raised over $3,500 for the Dustin J. Harris Memorial Scholarship and the Patten Main Street Flags project.

Army Spc. Harris was 21 years old when he died April 6, 2006, while serving in Bayji, Iraq, during Operation Iraqi Freedom. He was born May 11, 1984, in Millinocket, the son of Lorna and Scott Harris of Patten and graduated from Katahdin High School in June 2002.

After graduation, he studied diesel and heavy mechanics at Eastern Maine Technical College in Bangor. He joined the U.S. Army in 2004 and trained as a paratrooper before being stationed in February 2005, with the 172nd Brigade Support Battalion at Fort Wainwright in Fairbanks, Alaska, according to information provided by the organizers.
