PGR - USA Korean War Veteran, Gary Macleod

Click on a pic for a larger pic, text for a pic is under it.

PGR was asked to honor a fallen Korean War Vet, and an Honor it was!

We met at GGNC - Golden Gate National Cemetery for the service.  When I arrived the riders were wrapping up from a mission,  I asked Doug/Sgtmaj if I was late?  He said there were two services and the first one was wrapping up, I did not hear about this one.

So we had a break pause and I ate my lunch while folks were getting ready.  Cliff/Flagman did an outstanding job!  For both services!!!  Flags everywhere!





Just before Doug gave us our instructions, I took a pic of some of Flagman's flags and the ever 1/2 staff flag on the hill.  I have see it full staff, but rarely.




Doug giving us his say-once, how we should do it.   Most folks were to go up to the top of the hill by the flag where the service was to be.   It was windy down here, up there was much worse!   I'm talking push you out of your stance!




Doug selected four flag bikes to escort the family up to the service site, Sweet Ruby and I were one of them.

A great turn out and I think the family appreciated our show of respect.  He was a true hero and decorated many times.  God Bless family and friends during this time of passing.
