MISSION ACCOMPLISHED.

SGT. Kerr was met at the airport today to his complete surprise.
I goofed. Contacted the airline and was told that the flight was 10 minutes to touchdown.
11 minutes later when we arrived at the airport Sgt. Kerr was standing at the curb watching the bikes coming
down the drive with his wife behind them. He was completely startled and the SECOND thing he did was ask what
was going on. He graciously agreed to come to the end of the sidewalk and allow us to greet him in normal
PGR fashion with flag line and handshakes. He and his family were then escorted home. There the PGR were tendered fantastic hospitality.
After repast, we departed and left the family to their own warm Welcome Home.
