Mission complete. Five Austin PGR members stood the flag line during the arrival of the procession from San Antonio with the LEO escort and several members of the San Antonio PGR. Nicki arrived early and staked a few extra flags in anticipation of a small turn out due to there being 2 other missions. Tommy Goldenshoe, Scott and Maria Gray arrived a little early and assisted in organizing our small flag line. Tommy was the rider who came the farthest and was also the only bike rider today. It turned out to be a long day as the procession was delayed in San Antonio and was 2 hours late. Special thanks to San Antonio Deputy State Captain, Bob Johnson, for calling to give us a heads up regarding the late arrival.
Duke”s son, Billy Jack, rode with the procession and carried his father’s remains on his Harley. Members of the family expressed their appreciation for our presence to honor their loved one.
Thanks to the Austin and the San Antonio riders for staying and helping Nicki retrieve and stow the staked flags. This was especially appreciated because Soup was on crutches and was unable to help.
R.S.(Soup) Campbell, Ride Captain
