Details |
Riders will stage at the cemetery to be briefed about our hero and this mission. A flag line will be established for the graveside service. Riders will stand “tall and silent” for the inurnment service that will include full military honors. We will present our certificate of appreciation to the family. Once the service has concluded, riders will pull and carry the flags to the support vehicle to be furled and put away. Riders will be debriefed and dismissed. Note: The family has requested that we process with them from the Church (5 miles) to the cemetery. At the time of this posting, I had been unable to procure a support person, so they understand the procession may not be possible. Anyone arriving on a motorcycle or trike, it would be very much appreciated for us to accompany the family. There will not be LEO or professional escort services provided. |
