| Just spoke with Clay and he does need people for Sat. If you need flags you can stop at a Home Depot and get them. There is one in Dover and in Salisbury MD and in Lewes DE. I just picked mine up there and they were about 8$ for 3x5 with a 6' pole that comes apart. |

I had plenty of people with flags going Saturday from Dorchester County, but since no cars are allowed, I told them to stand down. Since Seaford is so close, I still may be able to get some bikes, but still need to know the staging area meeting and kickstand up times.

I'm a member of Guardians of the Cross M/M and now a new member of Patriot Guards. We have contacted as many biker groups as we can and we're planning on being there in force. We've especially contacted the Bufflo Soldiers to join us. Please let us know what or where we're to do once we arrive.

| When I talked to Clay earlier He told me to meet right at Cranston's fuuneral home at 3:30 but I think he was going to look for a staging area. I would try to keep checking back for updates. By the way the flags that I bought at Home Depot are made by Valley Forge and they fit perfect in my hard bags. |

I take it this for all to meet for the viewing Saturday?? If a staging area is confirmed, please let us know as soon as possible. Not everyone I have involved has computer access, especially on the weekend.

We don't have a bike, but my sister-in-law & I are coming Sunday to meet at the Harley Davidson shop with you. Know the area. Used to live down that way. Am standing in the gap for my niece who is in the Navy, and has to work this weekend. See you all Sunday!

I will keep a close eye on the forum and you can call my cell if you would like for an update. The # is 443-336-1210 . I plan on leaving about 2:00-2:30 from Greensboro MD about a 40 min commute and we could meet somewhere on RT 13 in Seaford and ride in together.

Meezer lady (and others) please be aware that Cars will be turned away at the Harley-Davidson Shop.
Concerns have been expressed by the shop and the police due to the extreme number of participants expected for this mission that mixing cages and bikes in a small area (like the HD shop parking area) is too dangerous. The best answer that we can get from the police is that people in cars are welcome to head towards the church and find parking in the area on heir own. I know this is not the best option that everyone is hoping for... |

I THINK THE OLD NYLON CAPITOL SHOPPING CENTER WOULD BE A GRAND IDEA. THE LOT IS SO MUCH LARGER THAN THE HARLEY LOT. SINCE I LIVED IN THE AREA YEARS AGO, I AM SOMEWHAT FAMILIAR. I CHECKED THE MAP TO REFRESH MY MEMORY. I THINK I'LL CUT DOWN THE OLD BRIDGEVILLE-SEAFORD ROAD, CROSS STEIN HIGHWAY, GO RT. ON POPLAR, THEN LT. ON PINE. THAT SHOULD GET US RIGHT THERE. BY THE WAY, WHAT IS THIS PARK WBOC KEEPS MENTIONING WHERE THE KANSAS "PEOPLE" ARE TO GO? CAN'T FIND IT ON THE MAP UNLESS IT IS BY ANOTHER NAME.

Folks, I think it's important to point out (again), especially for all the new folks that it does not matter at all where the UG's are going to be, or that they're going to be at the services at all.
We are not there because of them, we are there for Cory Palmer to honor his service to our country.
Where they will be is several blocks away from the church, and there is no line of sight from the church to where they are. Where we are going to end up parking is also several blocks from the church, in the complete opposite direction. We will not encounter their demonstration or ride by it at all.
There will be no interaction between our group showing our respect and honor for Cory and their group holding their protest.
By acknowledging the presence of the UG's, you have played into their hands and given them power. By allowing them to anger and incite you, you will allow them to accomplish their goal. The local media has already helped them more than they could have hoped by talking about the group non-stop for two days.
Ignore them, don't acknowledge them, and certainly don't let them get to you. They are beneath you- remember that. |

To all of my fellow Patriot Guard Riders and my fellow riders from our supporting groups;
Consider:
1. Our mission is to honor the service of the fallen soldier.
2. Give our last respects to the Family and his Community.
3. To provide escort to the fallen Warrior to his final resting place with dignity and humble reverence.
To all who wish to adhear to our mission statement, welcome, to all who wish otherwise, please reconsider your intent.
Carnifex is a very wise man (for his age, I can say that 'cause I'm distinguished [that means I'm an old Fart}, right Bob?) and he has spoken truth.
Our mission is to respect this young mans sacrafice for us all. The UG's are not important, and should be ignored. To ignore their existence denies their viability, so if we don't acknowledge them, their message is moot.
My Brothers and Sisters, who travel the road with us, Sunday is a testament to the power of good. Let us all walk the line of common decency and honor the man of good, and refute the vile.
I look forward to meeting you all.
Yours in Love and Service to this Great Nation, |
