Upon arriving at the funeral home we set the flag line,had a riders brief, and stood tall and silent for this hero.  An artist and photographer took pictures of the PGR to be included in a painting to be given to General Franks next month. After services started we broke down the flags, loaded them into Dawns truck, and prepared for the escort.  We were informed there would not be LEO support for the mission.
The family called and arranged for escort service, citing concern for our safety.  The trip from Allen to DFW National
went very well.  Upon arrival at DFW National manned the flags and honored the veteran.
