check out the PGR and Warrior Watch websites they do them all the time, unfortunately they never seem to work with my schedule so I don't get to go very often, but they are really cool.

Indeed they are, I have been on a few PGR missions, mostly the Funerals and they are deeply emotional events. I will never forget the second Soldiers Funeral I attended a couple of years ago in Hillside. The Family was so moved by the couple of hundred Bikers that showed up to show their respect that they shook every ones hand and, here is the part that choked up even the most stoic of us, they introduced us to the Soldiers dog, his pet since childhood. Our sunglasses came in handy that day to hide the wet eyes.........

I don't know if I could do a funeral, I cry at the homecomings. I probably would not be able to get back on my bike and ride home.
