Subject: POWs/MIAs Balloon Launch

The American Legion Riders will be hosting on Saturday, August 08, 2015 at 1:15 p.m.

Our “8th Annual POWs/MIAs Ceremony” will be held at Western Reserve National

Cemetery in Rittman Ohio. This Ceremony is a remembrance memorial for all

POWs/MIAs from the Revolutionary War though VIETNAM WAR.

In conclusion of the ceremony, there is a balloon launch to symbolize the souls of the

POW/MIA’s of all Armed Forces. To show our support, all present will join hands and

form what we call a healing circle. You will hear “I’m Proud to be an American”

recorded by Lee Greenwood, the balloons will then be released in memory of our

brothers and sisters. It is truly a beautiful ceremony to experience.

This event is open to all Veterans and the general public. The American Legion Riders

would be honored to have you attend this gathering

God Bless the U.S.A

Best Regards,

Ralph B Tharpe Jr. Legion Riders POWs/MIAs/ Rittman Run Chairman
