HILL AIR FORCE BASE -- Warriors of a different stripe strutted their stuff Friday at Hill Air Force Base.

The Salt Lake City Derby Girls held a thank-you bout at the base for a group of Hill kids and to show appreciation for the Air Force warriors who risk their lives by deploying to conflicts in places like Iraq and Afghanistan.

Clad in helmets, kneepads and a variety of other protective gear, the Derby Girls circled inside the base's Hess Fitness Center, battling it out on roller skates.
