I sometimes ride with the Patriot Guard.
This was a motorcycle policeman's funeral.

Great pics, RW!

There's something special about seeing patriotic pictures of people from past generations. For some reason, to me, they just seem more genuine. They've been through so much and can tell younger generations about things they can only read in books. I can't make a blanket statement, but it seems overall, they were about sacrifice. Today, it seems to be more about "me". But, I'm sure every generation takes a similar view of past & present generations.

Thanks for the pics!

Thanks to all.
My joint condition prevents most events nowadays.
Always a very moving experience..
