Good luck, and thank you so much for joining the PGR.
FrankOctober 25, 2010 at 9:13 pm #2899markwellsKeymasterSA mission for CPL Jorge Villerreal, JR. was completed. Mark, Jack and Dennis attended from Austin. For my first mission it was awesome turnout. Almost 60 Bikes, 3 Cages and between 400 – 500 individual cars and trucks to the cemetery.
It was a big show of Respect for this man who gave his all. First time I have seen that many Marines in full dress in one place other than TV.
God Bless the Villerreal Family and especially his young wife and son.
It was a pleasure to work with the SAPGR. -
