Riders staged at the Visitors center. The briefing was held at 09:30 and since Pvt. Towery had no family present, riders became the family and all joined in the procession to Committal Shelter A. Three PGR members had preset the flag line at the shelter. Upon arrival at Shelter A, the PGR pall bearers moved Pvt. Towery to the shelter where Taps was played and the Army Honor guard folded the flag and presented it to Pvt. Towery's friend Danny Baily. 
The PGR plaque was then read and also presented to Danny. A few words were spoken, a prayer and then Danny recited a Choctaw prayer in memory of Jim.
After the service was completed, flags were furled and stowed and riders debriefed and then were dismissed.
