Thanks, Danny
This is a California mission. We have been invited to attend the services for our fallen hero. It is possible the services will be in Whittier. As soon as I have the information as to the date, time and location, I will post it. It should be this afternoon. It will not be a Saturday mission but sometime next week. The father-in-law of this fallen hero joined the PGR yesterday once he heard about us. Welcome, sir. Also, the CAO thanks us for what we do, and for having our military's back. We are making a difference. Each and every PGR member should be proud of their contribution to our great organization.
To the family of Staff Sgt. Bryant A. Helem, my sincerest condolences.
