My thoughts and condolences go out to the Shank family on the loss of their son. Although distance will keep me from this mission, my prayers go out to this brave Wolfhound and fellow Tropic Lightning solider.

Question--Does anyone know if there is a secure place to park my vehicle and trailer around the Funeral Home. I will try to make the Funeral Mission, but that is a fair amount of miles for this old guy, round trip, from where I live in Ill.,so I think it's better for me to trailer the scoot.
Thanks for any suggestions.

NOFEAR 06 is correct. The Casualty Assistance Officer wanted to confirm Corporal Jeremy Shank's promotion before we posted it. I'm meeting with him and the funeral director this morning and will contact PGR central in a couple hours to make it official and order his placque. Be aware, as soon as we get DOD's transport schedule from Dover we will be organizing an escort to and from St. Louis. At that time we can build an itinerary and staging directions.
Thanks everyone. |

I have seen men
That were but children then
Back when the war was meant
To be fought
For what folk thought
for naught
They tell stories of their lives
How they stayed alive
How they are proud
To be here in America today
To be able to say
Thank you
In some small way
While We the People
Spat on those that saved them
When they returned home
To their own land
Although then too young myself
I am sorry it happened
That is why I do what I do
So it won't happen to You

| The Winder family would like to send our condolences to the friends and family of Cpl. Jeremy Shank. We would like to say thank you from the bottom of our hearts for making the ultimate sacrifice to protect our freedom from those that don't understand our way of life. You were, you are now, and you always will be an American Hero to my family and also the PGR family. To the family, you are in our thoughts and prayers, and no matter what we say we can not remove the pain of losing a loved one but hopefully knowing that the PGR is by your side will help ease the pain. Waiting for final itinerary should be able to be there to honor this hero. Out in St Charles. |
