Dear Helen and Art Wall,
Please do not allow these Univited Guests to put fear or dread in your hearts. Lean on your faith in the true God, in your friends and family and on us, the PGR. That is what we are here for and I will be there on Sat. to help shield you from those people. |

I wish to extend our deepest sympathies to the family of Staff Sgt Wall.
I would like to make this event if work permits. This will be my first PGR ride, except no bike. I will be all too happy to honor this fallen soldier and his family.
Are there requirements before I show? Having never attended a military funeral with PGR, I am a little new and not sure where to go.

In the hour of need, we honor the fallen who have given the supreme sacrifice! |

If -- and that is a big if -- I can attend I will be leaving from Omaha. This will be my first misson and would like any information possible that would help allow me to be a part of this effort. If anyone else is leabing from the Omaha / CB / Bellevue area when are you leaving and does it make sense to ride together?
My heart goes out to the family and my pity goes to the protesters. I cannot fathom how they justify their disrespect. Out of their lack of respect comes the demonstrations of so many who have previously only been able to carry their love and support for our fallen heroes in their hearts. |

To Helen and Art Wall, parents of this American Hero, this Nation owes you a debt we cannot repay. As the father of a fallen hero I know there are no words to ease your pain. I wish I could ride to honor your son. You are in my prayers. God bless you.

Haven't heard from the state captian yet on when and where to meet. But to leave together is a good idea it really shows support when everyone rides in together. Keep an eye out this thread we should see something real soon on as to where we should meet and leave. Hopefully you can join us.

I'm from Bellevue and I am planning on leaving here around 6:00 am Sat to get there by 9:00 am. Google Earth shows the route as taking 3 hours.
I don't have my bike available so I will be driving my "cage". If you want to coordinate I can be reached at 402-350-8525 (Cell).

| Several members are meeting at the library in Iowa Falls (50126) which is 5 min. from Alden and the funeral. It is the Barlow Memorial library at 921 Washington Ave., in case you want to mapquest it. My wife and I will be there at 0930 and feel we all should be ready to roll by 1000 at the latest, we are sure the funeral will be very large. Please drive careful as it is the All Iowa Rugby Tournament this weekend and a lot of new people will be in town. We share the pain of the Wall family and pray that we can enlighten the 'protesters' with our display of respect. "Rangers Lead The Way" Taz-man |
