Jasper, Georgia – 11 Feb 2017

ABOUT THE MISSION:
It is with a heavy heart I must sadly report that we have lost another Vietnam War Veteran. William “Boats” Wallace served our great nation by enlisting in the U.S. Navy in June 1963 serving for 20 years. He was a “River Rat” in Vietnam and Cambodia. He also served aboard President Nixon’s yacht. He retired from the Navy in July 1983 as a Boatswains Mate Chief Petty Officer (E-7). He was also an active member of the Combat Veterans Motorcycle Association.
The family has requested the Patriot Guard Riders be present and to honor their HERO during the memorial service at Rocco’s in Jasper, GA. I have informed the family that it will be our honor to do so. For the arrival of family and friends, we will establish and stand a silent flag line from 10:00 am until the commencement of the memorial service at 10:45 am. At the conclusion of the memorial service, approximately 12:00 pm, we have been invited to join the family, friends and Combat Vets for lunch at Rocco’s.
