Riders staged at the Cowboy Church in Mesquite Texas at 0900 hrs. At 0915 A riders brief was held an by 0930 we stood the flag line as family and friends arrived.  After the service began, the flag line was pulled and returned to the flag truck.  Because there was a four hour break before the procession riders were told to be back at the church by 1330.  Upon returning to the church we discovered the family had returned home.  We went there and left in procession for DFW National Cemetery.  We arrived at DFW National Cemetery, processed to Shelter A and stood the flag line there. The service ended, we returned the flags to storage, debriefed and were dismissed.
