My neighbor is a member of The Ohio Patriot Guard Riders. He invited me to go on a mission last week and I accepted. In the interest of privacy, I will not go in to detail, but the whole experience was amazing. I had no idea what these guys actually do. It was interesting, humbling, and made me very proud to be an American. These guys are self funded for the most part, and participate only at the invitation of a family member. Thank you Fred Phelps.
