The Patriot Guard Riders of the West Coast have been invited by the employees of Alaska Airlines and their Fallen Soldier Group to accompany a new Fallen Hero cart from Seattle, Washington on 01 Aug to San Diego, California on 04 Aug. We would be honored and privileged to do so.
These groups saw a need to provide Honor and Respect as our Fallen Heroes are brought home to their families, and have prepared what would ordinarily be just a baggage cart into something that has the reverence and honor it should have. This is being donated, in this case, to San Diego International Airport for use by any/all airline(s) that transports a Hero.
The Fallen Hero Cart is being accompanied in relays by the various areas of the PGR it travels through.
NOTE: This mission posting is to facilitate your voluntary participation in accompanying this Fallen Hero Cart.
