The Patriot Guard has been invited to participate in the homecoming of another American hero. Marine CPL Michael Dodson MP-K-9 will returning from Iraq in July 5, 2008. The Patriot Guard will be joining his immediate family at Lambert-St. Louis International Airport in welcoming him and then escorting to a reception at his parents home in Fenton MO.
Staging will be at the Golden Pancake Restaurant, 10216 Natural Bridge Rd, 63134, at 12:00hrs, with KSU between 12:45hrs and 13:00hrs.
I cannot think of a better way to spend some time on the Fourth of July weekend, one of the most Patriotic Holidays, than to spend some time thanking and welcoming home a true American Patriot
This is also Saturday, so I am hoping we can have a large turn out.
R/C for this ride will be Bob “Triumph” Flowers.

| Welcome Home CPL. |

Never again will they return home in shame,
Never again will wearing their uniform cause them pain.
Never again will we forget why they serve.

| I would just like to thank each and everyone of the over seventy people who showed up to welcome home Cpl Dodson. But nothing that I can say will even come close to equalling the look on his face when he saw us. I know that I will never forget it.
Thanks again |
