SUMMARY:Stafford L. Morris\, POW/MIA\, USA - Korea
DESCRIPTION:Sgt. Stafford L. Morris\, POW/MIA \nUSA – Korea \nAtlanta\, Georgia – 12 Aug 2017\n\n\n[HR][/HR] \nABOUT THE MISSION: \nAn American Hero Returns Home\, 66 years later. \nArmy Sgt. Stafford L. Morris\, missing from the Korean War\, has now been accounted for. \nIn late November 1950\, Morris was a member of Battery A\, 503rd Field Artillery Battalion\, 2nd Infantry Division\, and located north of the town of Kujang-dong\, North Korea. Due to heavy fighting and encroaching Chinese Army elements from the north\, American units were forced to withdraw south through an area that came to be known as “The Gauntlet.” On Dec. 1\, the battalion began to move down the supply route\, under continuous enemy fire. The unit sustained many casualties.\nMorris’ name did not appear on any POW list provided by the CA or the North Korean People’s Army\, however multiple returning American POWs provided any information concerning Morris as a prisoner of war\, stating that he died at Hofong Camp\, part of Pukchin-Tarigol Camp Cluster\, on Jan. 21\, 1951. \nSgt. Staffords last remaining family members have asked the Patriot Guard to stand in honor of the service that he gave to our country\, and we will gladly do so. \nPRIMARY STAGING DETAILS: 12 Aug 2017 \n\nPrimary Staging Time: 9:30 A.M.\n\n\nFriendship Baptist Church\n80 Walnut St\, SW\nAtlanta\, Georgia – \nhttps://www.google.com/maps/place/Fr…/data=!3m1!4b1\n\n\nRide Captain:\n\n\nDavid (Wild1) Shreckengost\n678-663-2835\nwild1handy@yahoo.com\n\n\nSpecial Instructions:\n\n\nThere will be a short briefing at 9:45 A.M.\nWe will stand a flag line for 1 hr prior to the start of the 11:00 A.M. service. \nESCORT – following the service\, we will escort to the cemetery for graveside services with military honors. \nWe will set up a flag line upon arrival at the cemetery.\n \n\nFlags & Water:\n\n\nFlags Will Be Provided\nIf you have large bike flags\, please bring them.\nWater will be provided.\n\n\nSubmitted By: David Shreckengost\nPosition: Ride Captain \n\n[HR][/HR] \nNote:\nYou do not have to own/ride a motorcycle or be a Veteran to join and membership is Free.
