This is the Soft Itinerary for the Patriot Guard Mission to honor Cpl Matthew P Wallace 22, from Lexington Park Maryland.
Cpl Wallace died in Landstuhl Regional Medical Center, Landstuhl, Germany, of injuries sustained when an improvised explosive device detonated near his Bradley Fighting Vehicle during combat operations in Baghdad, Iraq, on July 16. Wallace was assigned to the Army's 10th Cavalry Regiment, 2nd Brigade Combat Team, 4th Infantry Division, Fort Hood, Texas.
This will be a three part mission with the final part being firmed up at a later date.
Part 1. Visitation.
Visitation will be held Wed 26 July 2006 at the Patuxent River Assembly of God Church. 45020 Patuxent Beach Road, California, MD 20619 Time is 6pm to 8pm.
All Patriot Guard Riders need to be at the church NO LATER THEN 5:00 in order to get parked and setup for flag detail as soon as possible for arriving guest. Directions to the Church can be found by using the following link . Map and Directions: http://www.pragnet.org/modules.php?name=Directions There will only be 6 riders for this part of the mission to escort Matthew to the Church.
Part 2. Memorial Service
The Memorial Service will be held 27 July 2006 at the Patuxent Presbyterian Church. 23421 Kingston Creek Road, California, Maryland 20619 Time is 1 pm to 5 pm.
All Patriot Guard Riders need to be at the church NO LATER THEN 1200 in order to get parked and setup for a flag detail as soon as possible for arriving guest. Directions to the Church can be found by using the following link. Map and Directions: http://www.tqci.net/~paxpres/location.htm Again there will only be 6 riders needed for this part of the mission to escort Matthew to the Church.
Both of the Missions may not require a escort. This is only a Soft Itinerary due to Matthew Wallace not being physically home yet. These dates may slide so please continue to watch this thread for updates.
As far as a staging area, I suggest that we stage in the BJ's parking lot on the corner of 235 and Route 4. In order to make the meeting time at the church I will call for a Kick Stands up NLT 4:45 for the Visitation Mission and 11:45 for the Memorial Service.
Part 3. Procession and Interment - Arlington National Cemetery
The Procession and interment - Arlington National Cemetery will be 02 AUG 2006.
The Procession will originate at Brinsfield Funeral Home 22955 Hollywood Road Box 279 Leonardtown, Maryland 20650.
Rally time is 0700
at the College of Southern Maryland, Leonardtown Campus, parking lot.
We will be kickstands up around 0730-0800, depending on when the FD
roll his coach.
It is right across the road from the address above.

Matthew has been in my family's prayers since we read about him in the local paper. It was with great sadness that I read of his passing. With the knowledge that Matthew is in a better place without pain, I am standing by in Lexington Park. I am thankful that his parents were able to be there to say good-bye and pray for their continued strength during this time.

Thank you, Cpl. Matthew P. Wallace, for your willingness to defend our nation and giving all you could give, in the ultimate sacrifice. We love, honor and respect you and will not allow you to have died in vain. May God richly comfort your dear family in the loss of such a fine young man. Once again, our faith is increased as of the older generation, seeing so many of you fine, young patriots willing to fight for a country where many of it's citizens do not have the wisdom to realize that fighting the enemy over there can help prevent us having to fight that enemy over here.
I served proudly from 1963-67 in the USAF for my country because I love her, even with her failures. She's still the greatest nation on earth. Matthew, you have fought a good fight and now you are in the hands of a loving God. Lord God, heal this broken hearted family and help us to always honor with the utmost respect those who are willing to fight the good fight, for without these brave men and women, our grand children will not grow up in a free nation like we did.
Praying for you all,
Jim Sandefur III
