I am an Abilene PGR R/C and their web admin.  Several of our riders have expressed an interest in knowing when KIA missions are within a reasonable riding distance so I monitor patriotguard.org and DOD press releases then post all NM, OK & TX KIA's.  See the following link.  http://westtexaspgr.org/DOD_Releases.htm

I received the Robert E Thomas patriotguard.org mission release the day before it starts and missed being able to post information earlier because the DOD Sept 14th release listed him from California and his death as non combat related.  I would like to receive your notifications in advance so this doesn't happen again.

I've met some of you on "hand off" missions and I'm sure will one day get the chance to go along with you for a ride.   

Thanks,
Bert Simpson
