The mission began with the riders paying their respects to Mr. Hill and viewing the documentation of his impressive military career spanning WWII and the Korea War. 

Riders welcomed so many guests that the large parking lot overflowed onto the streets and neighboring business parking lots.  Among those arriving were members of the Native American Warrior Society of Texas in their organizational uniforms.  The Korean War Veterans Association were proudly dressed in white military shirts with unit patches, medals earned, gold KWVA pins on each color, along with black ball caps.

It was a special honor to salute Medal of Honor recipient Col. James Stone, a personal friend of Mr. Hill's, as he arrived.

Two riders left for the cemetery after the flags were taken down for the procession to prepare for the internment service.  The procession arrived and honorary pall bears from the KWVA stood behind PGR rider pall bearers.  The Native American Warriors folded the flag and presented the colors to Mrs. Hill.  They also presented an Army flag streamer to the widow. Taps was beautifully played by retired Marine Sgt. Compton.
