12 fellow patriots stood in the heat today to honor this Marine & Williamson County sheriff’s officer. A very large contingent of LEOs was present as well. Family came out to personally thank each one of us & to tell me more about Mr. Giles. We all knew he was born at a Marine base but what we did not know. was his dad was also a Marine. (a drill instructor) Guess we now know how he came to be a Marine & a decorated member of the Sheriff’s Department.
RIP Sir
Respectfully submitted by PGR Ride Captain & fellow Marine, Keith Longacre
