[MyothersanM1]

Let us know how you will be planning to remember our fallen heroes on this thread.

Get your Iron rollin'...America needs us, guys. Let 'em know we care!

Hannibal and crew will be coordinating Cub Scout Pack 18's (Culver City, CA) involvement in the Flag Placement Ceremony at Los Angeles National Cemetery on Saturday, 05-28-11. The ceremony involves Scouts from all over the Los Angeles area. Over 80,000 flags will be placed.

Monday, 05-30-11, Memorial Day, Hannibal and Crew will be running in support of the Patriot Guard Riders at Green Hills Memorial Cemetery, Palos Verdes, CA. There is a quite large ceremony at that location each year. Look forward to providing a little thunder with the PGR.

The MVCC (Colorado) will have their usual 20-25 vehicles in the Commerce City Memorial Day Parade just north of Denver. This parade is bigger an better than Denver's. One of our vehicles will be hauling the Grand Marshalls which is an entire family of service members who have served in all conflicts, WWII through Iraq and Afghanistan. Pretty valuable cargo and an honor for our club.

I will be at the R.I. Veterans Cemetary for a short memorial service honoring the men of the 43rd division that served in WWII. My dad served and would always attend. Dad is no longer with us so I feel it is my duty and privledge to stand in his place. There are fewer original members attending every year but there are a few sons taking there place.

My wife and daughter will be placing flags at the National Cemetery in Chattanooga, I will be working from Wednesday through Sunday getting setup to run a invite only MG shoot to benefit Wounded Warrior Foundation. WE hope to have a larger piece of land next year so that more people can come, this is the third shoot at the present location, we only have a 200 yard range and are expecting 340+ people for Friday and Saturday, tanks, anti tank guns, civil war cannons, belt feds, sub guns, WWII re-enactors, half tracks and a couple of my deuces. We are supposed to be on 1,000 acres next year and hope to have it open to the public, I would love to see that as we could raise even more money for the cause. Dan.
