PGR was asked to welcome home some Marines, it was a great day, a great mission and an honor to be there!  Thank you for your service!


Chappi was Ride Captain (RC) and of course most of the south bay riders showed up!    Being a nice day also helped.  GBG  (Great Big Grin)  We had about 1/2 dozen cages and over 30 scoots.  Folks, we had a Convoy!   My sweet Ruby center, flag flying high!


More of the cages, Rudy's truck in front.  He had extra flags for folks.



The lady on the left had a tiara and I did not hear the significance but she spoke when we arrived at our destination.


And a whole lot of scoots!


And more...


Chappi gets his say once in, giving us the route and ride instructions.


We arrive at the airport and park with Cass's assistance, thank you VERY MUCH!!!  Chappi taking a pic and Mark on the right watching.


I only had one keeper of the flag line, many more were behind me.


We arrive at their unit to be greeted by a nice welcome home!


Just shooting pics....


Chappi explains the phases of our mission to our guests of honor, he finished with "on the last phase, you can polish all the scoots or take a group photo with us"!   GBG  We got our pic, hope someone publishes it!


A great mission!  Thanks to all that attended!  You all make a difference!  Nice to see a lot of old friends!
