The Patriot Guard Riders have been invited to participate in the Deployment Ceremony of Bravo Company, 2-149 General Support Aviation Battalion (GSAB), Texas Army National Guard, Grand Prairie, TX.

Riders will enter the Base through the main security gate on Lakecrest Street. Identify yourself as a Patriot Guard Rider and you will be passed through security. Helmets, long pants and leather boots (shoes) are required for motorcycle riders to enter the base. CHL carry must remain in bike (or cage) while on the Base. After clearing security, continue northeast on Lakecrest Street until you reach the hangar facility. A Ride Captain will direct the staging of your bike.

Following the briefing, riders will obtain a Flag from the support vehicle and stand the Flag Line at the entrance to the hangar for the arrival of the Families and guests of Bravo Company. Just prior to the start of the ceremony, riders will move, with Flags, into the hanger and position on each side of the Families and guests. The Flag Line will remain in place during the Ceremony, which is planned to last thirty minutes.

At the conclusion of the Ceremony, and at the direction of the Ride Captain, riders will move to the support vehicle, furl the Flags and be dismissed.
