Riders, due to the likelihood of wet weather conditions on Friday, the motorcycle accompaniment portion of this mission is scrubbed.

However, the flag line at CTSVC in Killeen is still a go. Please use that opportunity to honor this veteran’s service.

Mr. Dial joined the US Army’s 101st Airborne Division in 1963 and served active duty until 1965, including deployment to Vietnam. He left the service as a captain.

On a cold and windy day two Austin Patriot Guards joined the five Central Texas Patriot Guard at the CTSVC in Killeen. We were there to honor Captain Dial, longtime friend of Soup and Nicki Campbell.

Central Texas ride captain Ingrid “LilDragon” Ruble briefed us on this mission. We set up 50 flags on both sides of the drive. That was very impressive. A friend shared life experiences they had with Dick and Cindy. Soup Led all in a prayer and thanked everyone including the Patriot Guard for being there to show our support for Cindy, family members and friends.

RIP Captain Dial
