Mission Summary: |
The family has invited the Patriot Guard to come and honor a true hero. We will participate in his memorial service and in the procession and interment. |
PART 1: |
Funeral Service, Cowboy Stadium in Arlington at 1300 Hours |
Mission Date: |
Feb 11, 2013 |
Staging Time: |
10:30 |
Briefing Time: |
11:00 |

Details Of Part 1: |
We have been invited to stand a flag line for Chris's service. They will open the doors at 1130 hours for the funeral service that begins at 1300. We will have a group of riders that will stand with a flag at the entrance of the stadium. We will rotate riders so that riders won't struggle with standing too long.
Just before the service begins, we will make our way to the underground tunnel at the northeast corner of the stadium. We will re-stage there and, when directed, we will move out onto the field and stand around the wall with flags to honor Chris and the family, while the service is completed. When it is over and the family has departed, we will return the flags to the trucks and, following a de-briefing, all riders will be dismissed until Tuesday morning for part 2.
Staging will be in Lot J, on the west side of the Ball Park in Arlington. Be prepared to move to another location if directed.
There will not be a water truck available. Bring enough water for yourself.
Plans may change, so be flexible as you come to honor this true American hero.
Security will Be VERY high; do not bring weapons of ANY kind to the stadium, the procession, or the interment. |

If we have any North Texas (and surrounding areas) bikers on FR, this is going to be an excellent opportunity to stand up for a Patriot, Soldier, and Hero.
I'm seriously considering taking Monday off for this. From what I'm hearing, this will likely be one of the biggest PGR missions ever. I'm hearing that we're likely to have police escorts, and if it's as big as they are saying, it's pretty likely the local Police and Highway Patrol will be shutting the freeways down as it passes on the way to the internment.
I'm not sure how they'll do refuels, as it's a long ride to Midlothian and Austin even if you've got a good sized tank.

I’ll have to ask my neighbor, he’s one of them.
I’m off Monday for my BD, me and She Who Must Be Obeyed are figuring to make a drive over to Cowpie Stadium to be there. I don’t know for sure why, except that I admire the hell out of a man with sand.
A helluva a lot of sand.

considering the person involved, the location, known groups in the area, detailed schedule, paticipants and their privacy info, this post really should be taken down...even though the intention is good it’s better not to take unnecessary risk.

Need to get word out to the Austin area Freepers to make sure there is a strong showing of respect on this end as well.

The
funeral and PGR mission for Tyrone Woods, one of four Americans Hillary and Obama allowed to be killed in Benghazi, went w/o a hitch here in San Diego. I have full faith that this one will also.

Though I agree with your concerns I will be there unafraid.
LEO presence will be heavy. I just hope the Code Fink sluts aren’t there, no good will come from their presence.

Not to worry.
The patriots will outnumber the goons by 1,000 to 1 or more.
This is Texas.

Your concerns are touching but I WILL BE THERE as will probably thousands of others to pay respect to a true hero and his family.

Uh, everything I posted was already on the web for anyone to view on the PGR website, as are all of our missions. Thanks for your concern, but I think we'll be fine.

do you honestly believe that those that plan to disrupt this event don’t already know even more about it than what has been posted here?
I’m praying that dozens of fully armed SEALS decide that they have had enough of the whole Westboro crew

You do not need a hog (or even a Gold Wing like me) to be a part of the flag line. Lots of guys can just barely stand a flag line but they can still contribute.
You will be so glad that you did!
The family never asks what you rode in on.

If you can, please post pictures.
I won't be able to bring the bike down from Minnesota - but I'd love to be there.
Don't forget to pack plenty of drinking water.
