| If there is no escort (or even if there is), anyone who wants, can meet up at Richmond HD (just south of Ashland). And if the weather is bad, we can carpool, and leave what ever vehlicles not needed at Richmond HD. That way we can be in the HOV lane coming home. |

Written by an American Soldier in Iraq "If I die before you wake - I pray the world will take a good look at what God has given us."
I mourn the loss of an Amrican Hero and I ask that the Lord bless and put his loving arms around the family and dear friends of Shane Adcock.
The Patriot Guard Riders will never ever forget that we owe our freedom to men and women like Shane, who have the courage to give their life so that we may live free.

PGR;
Again I ask you to take care of one of my Wolfhounds since we are not there to do it ourselves. The Soldiers of the Wolfhounds thank you in advance for all you will do in support of this family of Wolfhounds. Shane was a inspiration to not only the Soldiers of this team, but also to the Iraqi Army Battalion that he trained and fought along side of. From Iraq, the entire Wolfhound team of 2-27 Infantry sends the family of this great American our heartfelt sympathy and we pray that the Lord provides you the strength and understanding that Shane died doing what he loved doing and fighting for the innocent people of this country that are oppressed and brutalized by criminals that only offer death and destruction to the nation of Iraq and the world. NO FEAR!!! |

******************Mission Report Parts 1 & 2 ****************
Weds. Oct 25th, 5 of us met at Woody Funeral Home @ 3:30pm, to Honor Capt. Shane Adcock and his Family.
The weather was sunny but cool. We set up a Honor line on either side of the main entrance and stood proud from
3:45pm to 7:00pm.
Thanks to Carl Sprouse, Paul Rulli, John Super, and Mike Philips.
Thurs. Oct 26th, 7 of us met at the Grove Avenue Baptist Church for the Church Service. Beautiful sunny and warmer day. Staged at 3:30pm. We set up an Honor line on either side of the Church entrance at around 4:00pm, to welcome the
Family and Friends. The Church service started at 5:00pm, in which we took a half hour break. We went back on Flag duty at
around 5:30, this time setting up the Flag Line around the hearse. Shortly after, members of Capt. Adcock's unit brought the Flag Drapped
Casket out to the hearse. PGR came to attention and Saluted an American Hero.
Thanks goes out to Wayne Adcock (no relation), Carl Sprouse, George Hofferber, John Super, Dick Linn, & Paul Rulli, for the Job Well Done.
Also, A Big Thank You, to Captain Shane Adcock, his Family and Friends, for your Service to our Country. God Bless All of You. You will forever be
in our Hearts.
