About this Event

Welcome to the Queenslake 5th Annual Mogadishu Mile Kentucky!

For five years, Queenslake Horse Farm has been the proud host of the Mogadishu Mile, an annual event launched in 2021 to honor the 19 U.S. soldiers who fell in the Battle of Mogadishu on October 3-4, 1993.

Founded by William Chmela (Air Force, 1956-1960, now 90 years young), his son John, daughter-in-law Claire, and their two daughters, this event is Queenslake’s tribute to resilience and remembrance. Held each year on our horse farm—featuring a 1-mile lake, spectacular wooded trails, and five rugged obstacles—it’s a tradition rooted here in the heavenly backdrop of a genuine Kentucky Horse Farm.

The Mogadishu Mile salutes the Army Rangers, Delta Force operators, and special forces who ran a desperate mile to safety under fire, carrying their wounded—a story of “No One Left Behind” immortalized in Black Hawk Down. Queenslake pauses our horse operations annually to open our gates, honoring these heroes while benefitting veteran charities.

Queenslake hosts multiple events every year to honor US veterans. The Mogadishu MileQueenslake hosts multiple events every year to honor US veterans. The Mogadishu Mile is Queenslake’s flagship event—established in the kentucky bluegrass is Queenslake’s flagship veteran event.
