2008 WINNER - SSG Jason Pickett, 103rd ENG Battalion of the US Army
18th April 2009, Bourbeuse Valley, Missouri, USA

SSG Jason Pickett of 103rd ENG Battalion was presented with his Harley Davidson Fatboy® at the Bourbeuse Valley Harley Davidson Dealership on Saturday 18th April.

Pickett's photograph, which shows four of his colleages taking a break after a long day filling HESCO Concertainers, was taken In Mosul Iraq and captured exactly what the judges were looking for; an excellent quality image, interesting composition and sound construction.

HESCO researched Harley dealers in the States to find a dealer near Pickett's home town, then made the call to Rick LeClaire at Bourbeuse Valley Harley Davidson who supplied the Fatboy® plus all the protective riding gear that Mr Pickett needed to see him cruising off into the sunset.

The lucky winner had these words to say... "It is unbelievable that I was chosen and can’t wait to feel the Summer wind in my face... “

We wish SSG Pickett all the best and hopefully the start of many new exciting Fatboy® adventures.
