Greetings,
 
There will be 7 combat vets from the Viet Nam war finally laid to rest in Helena Montana on the 13th  of July.  These men were KIA's and the bodies were never claimed.  PGR has been authorized to take custody of the cremations and transport them from Butte, MT to Helena, MT to be given a full military funeral and burried properly.  I will be one of seven bikers who will carry one of the urns to the burial site, that will be a very dificult ride.  There will be many bikes in the procession and we will do everything we can to make sure these men get a proper burial, nothing will stand in our way, you have my promise on that. 
 
Honored to serve once again,

Do you have any more info on this? Such a sad story, it should be told to the news and more people should know about it.
 
Thanks

Welcome Home, Thank you for your service
Freedom is a fragile thing and is never more than one generation away from extinction. It is not ours by inheritance; it must be fought for and defended constantly by each generation. Thanks SheWolf

Update to the subject:
 
It looks like we will have well over 100 bikes for the procession and although the temp will be around 100 I will not let that stop me from being on this mission.  These seven brothers will be laid to rest the proper way, full military honors.  This ride is getting bigger every day and I will post as to how things went. 
 
riding for those who can't.

OZ,
 
This is being covered by the local paper and TV station.  These seven Brothers were found as a direct result of the Missing In America Project that was started when I was the Montana State Captain for PGR.  We think there are a few more here in the state and we are working quietly behind the public eye to find them whereever they may be.  I will keep this board informed.
 
Never Forget,
Shooter
