I would like to thank the Patriot Guard Riders that made this mission. I know the morning ride was cold and most of us had no Idea about this mission until the last minute. I would like to Thank the Rolling Thunder and A.B.A.T.E. for their invite for us to participate with them in this ride to honor one of our fallen own. I did not know John Pruitt but from what I learned about him there he could have just as easily been me. John went down on his bike suddenly while riding with a good Bro. There is a lot of speculation as to what happened. The fact of the matter is that he was Veteran, A biker A friend and comrade to many. His absence will be felt. His spirit will be missed. Semper Fi John. You are relieved. God Speed
Mission Accomplished
I was going to post a thanks to you and the other riders in the web site but I couldn't figure out where to put it since the mission was not listed. Thanks again for the help in the service for a fellow veteran, rider, and a friend.
