SUMMARY:POW/MIA Watchfire Ceremony
DESCRIPTION:HOTH Mission\nPOW/MIA Watchfire Ceremony\nUSA USMC USN USAF USCG –\nSt Charles\, Missouri – 09-20-19\n\n\n\nABOUT THE MISSION: \nThe Saint Charles Veterans Commission has requested the Patriot Guard Riders stand a flag line during the annual ceremony at the Veterans Memorial to commemorate all active military\, veterans\, and all POW/MIA on Friday night. The event is known as a “Watch Fire\,” a long-standing tradition to build large fires to guide returning soldiers and militia back to their camp or village. The modern day watch fire is a symbolic event: a fire lit in hopes that all of America’s soldiers held as prisoners of war and those missing in action will find their way home.
