Memorial Day

Just a note to say thank you to all the Veterans out there. Because of your sacrifices we have the freedom and liberty we all so enjoy. I am riding up to D.C. tomorrow with Rolling Thunder as a show of support for the POW-MIA issue. I won't be on here again until next Tuesday so to everyone, have a great holiday and remember, "all gave some and some gave all". Again, thank you Veterans.

Shovelhead, we are pulling out from Lexington Ky. in the PM Wed. Will be arriving in DC around 1:00 on Thursday. If you are going, PM me and we can try to hook up this week end. Terry.

I think as time goes on, more and more are forgetting. That is really a shame. Some don't know how good they got it or why they got it that good. Thanks to all.

Thank Goodness, some will NEVER forget.


Old Guard soldiers place flags in front of every headstone at Arlington National Cemetery,
Thursday, May 27, 2004 in preparation of Memorial Day. Troops in each arm of the Armed Forces
will place more than 290,000 flags at every grave marker in Arlington National Cemetery to honor fallen soldiers
