District #1 Ride Captain Jon Williams is assigned this Welcome Home Mission. Please follow his instructions and remember to bring your 3x5 American Flags. In the event of inclement weather come in you’re cage.

As most of you know when Shane was injured he was a Corporal in the US Army, he has since been promoted to Sergeant. He was released from Active duty this past week and is returning home. Since September 30 2006 Shane has went through a lot of rehabilitation and his now returning to Civilian life. As the picture above show from that first Christmas at home after there new home was completed Shane and his mother “Cindy” are truly a “SPECIAL TEAM together against the world” as Cindy had told the Stars & Strips in a recent article.

There were several organizations involved in making their new home a reality and the Patriot Guard Riders played a small part in making that happen. Now, as Shane makes the transition into civilian life we need to be there when needed for him and his mother. I want them to know they are not alone together against the world. We the Patriot Guard Riders will be there for them.

To Cindy and Shane, thank you so much for letting us show our appreciation for serving our country and letting us be a part of your lives.

thanks for making me feel old guys (doughboy helmets ?)....i turned 50 three days ago so im a little sensitive .....i was a gunners mate so the .50 cals were mine to fondle

You're not old, you're experienced Happy Belated Birthday!!!!

Some of the pictures that Alab posted there was some massive gear all over him.

How heavy is all that shit?

I don't even remember, quite a bit. After a while you get used to it, then you take it off and you feel like superman.

But the 50 cal is just the same as it's always been.

Wow, that's some old school right there.

Yay hydraulic clutches ^.^

Win! Didn't I see that on http://www.thereifixedit.com?

I was where your sig pic is in April. There's some good words in your sig. Thanks for the welcome.

I was there for the Tea Party the weekend of Sept 11. I never get tired of watching the Changing of the Guard. I always get choked up too.

Welcome to the place where the cool kids hang out.

OMG THATS FUNNY

We had stopped our convoy in the middle of some dirt back road, I forget why, but then this farmer and his flock of sheep just cut through us right in front of my M88. I thought to myself "WTF is going to happen in the next 20 seconds." I ducked down a bit so just my eyes were out of the hatch so I could watch him and his sheep, looking for anything out of the ordinary. Nothing happened, he just went on his way like we didn't exist and he had done this many times before.

Yeah, when you're sitting still is when shit happens. It's a freaky feeling when you're sitting there Like you are pressing your luck waiting for an AK-47, RPG or VBIED that has your name on it.

Here are a couple of vids
