The Patriot Guard Riders have been invited by the command of a U.S. Army unit to welcome them home from a long and difficult deployment in support of the war in Afghanistan. We are honored that we have been invited to share in this joyous occasion!
These Heroes have sacrificed months of their lives in protecting our freedoms and have spent long time away from family and the everyday life we enjoy. Lets bring our thanks, our smiles, our handshakes, our flags and banners and give them the Hero's welcome they deserve.
This mission will be a flag line only at their arrival ceremony with family.
NOTE: This mission posting is to facilitate your voluntary participation in honoring these American Heroes.
