Our sincere condolences to all those who mourn the passing of Cpl Benson. His sacrifice shall not go unrecognized.

Standing by in Maplewood.

Those heroes who make the ultimate sacrifice do not pass on alone. They are carried from the fields of battle by the Valkyr who carry them to Valhall. Here they will live on with all those who have gone on before to await the final and ultimate battle, Ragnnarök.

It's not neccessarily the conditions you ride in, but how much you've prepared yourself to ride safely in them that will make a difference.

*******  STAND DOWN  *********

Patriot Guard Riders,
We have been asked to stand down from this mission - the family does not request our presence at this time. The Casualty Assistance Officer is aware that we are ready to respond if that should change.

Rest in peace, Cpl. Johnathan L. Benson. Your heroism and sacrifice will not be forgotten.
