Veterans Recognition Motorcycle Ride to DC
Their mission is “To promote healing among ALL Veterans and their families and friends, to call for an accounting of all Prisoners of War and those Missing in Action (POW/MIA), to honor the memory of those Killed in Action (KIA), from all wars, and to support our military personnel all over the world.”
Logistics – The ride will occur along three different routes from California to Washington DC crossing as many states as possible. Attached is a list of the planned overnight stops. There will be numerous stops each day along the route as well.
Volunteers are needed to help at many of their stops. Some of their stops will be at VAMCs that are also asking for volunteers to help with this event to welcome the riders when they arrive.
