*****************************************************************************

We have been invited to a Veterans visit/luncheon at Thomas E Creek VA Medical Center in Amarillo, Texas.  This will give veterans and PGR members time to visit and share fellowship, swap stories, and a hot hamburger or two. At 1400 (2PM) the PGR has been invited to a flag pole dedication. This flag pole is in the shape of a ships mast, and flies not only the US Flag, but all service flags as well as the POW/MIA flag.  The flag pole creator has attended PGR missions with us and has invited us!  Arrangements are being made with local PD to close this street off for parking and current plans are for mayor and other local VIPS to attend.
 
Staging:

America's real heroes don't flaunt what they did; they quietly go about their day-to-day lives, doing what they do best. They earned our respect and the freedoms that we all enjoy. Thank you to America's heroes!
