The family of
Petty Officer 2nd Class Gia Truong has invited the Patriot Guard Riders to be present to honor this hero for his service to his country. It will be our privilege to do so.
PO2 Truong was serving his country in the US Navy when he passed. He was a BM2 - Boatswain's Mate 2nd Class.
This hero has been at Thien Vien Dai Dang Buddhist Temple for the past month where he has been receiving blessings. The family has requested an accompaniment from the Temple to his final resting place, Miramar National Cemetery, a distance of approximately 40 miles.
Note: This notice is to facilitate your voluntary participation in honoring this Military Veteran. For those interested, and all are welcome, we will be accompanying this hero from the Temple to the cemetery. Please see the time table below if you would like to participate. For those who would rather go directly to the cemetery, we will meet you there.
Time Table for Part 2, Friday, 30 June 2017:0700 – Stage: Thien Vien Dai Dang Buddhist Temple, 6326 Camino Del Rey, Bonsall, CA 92003.

After turning into the driveway, yield to the left, then climb the rather steep concrete driveway. Parking is available past the buildings in a flat area. .
