SoCalSGT Posted June 17, 2010 Report Share Posted June 17, 2010 I know that we have a lot of members who can appreciate this video. Even though Memorial Day has passed for this year, the memories for which it stands will never pass. We can never thank our heroes enough. John 3000 vets on motorcycles from across the USA paraded in D.C. the Sunday before Memorial Day, while a solitary, saluting Marine greeted them out on Constitution Avenue... the Marine stood at salute for 3 straight hours, while the parade of roaring bikes kept on coming.... it is held in remembrance of those who've fallen in the military.... the event (or the group) is called Rolling Thunder... George Bush used to meet these bikers before they paraded... the camera is on the Marine a lot... watch his struggles with his emotions, and his struggles with holding that salute... the way he salutes is very touching... his head lowered, his eyes down, in reverence for the fallen... it got to be overwhelming for him... and the tears started flowing... watch what he says when he finally breaks, but keeps right on holding that salute... n click on this link to see the video Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
