Details |
The family of James Ray Shortnacy, United States Marine Corps World War II Combat Veteran, has asked us to honor his memory and service to our Country by establishing a Flag Line prior to his funeral service, fold and present the casket flag. After the Mission Briefing, the Riders will establish the Flag Line and await the arrival of Mr. Shortnacy’s family and friends. Once the service begins, the Riders will return the flags to the support vehicle and be dismissed. The committal service will be at 1000, next Monday morning, September 26th, at the Dallas – Fort Worth National Cemetery. |
