This Veteran' Day, the PGR have been invited by the Spirit of Liberty Foundation to accompany the America’s Freedom Bell to and / or in the San Diego Veteran’s Day Parade. It will be our privilege and honor to fulfill their request.
The Spirit of Liberty Foundation’s patriotic float will proudly be host to two Naval Academy Midshipmen to “man” and ring America’s Freedom Bell at the parade. They are Midshipman First Class Ms. Sofi Stalker and Midshipman First Class Mr. Solomon Woldeselassie; each are tremendous leaders within the brigade. Along with Veteran’s from the Korean and Vietnam Wars, we are honored to have Max Gurney, a 103-year-old Normandy WWII Veteran ride on our float this year.
