PATRIOT RIDERS

PATRIOT RIDERS. The Love’s parking lot filled quickly when motorcycle riders from across the state of Washington converged in Ritzville. The majority of riders were traveling from Tri-Cities and all were in route to the Washington State Veterans Cemetery in Medical Lake. Many from the group were members of the Patriot Guard Riders, who work to transport the bodies of unclaimed veterans to the cemetery and give them a proper funeral through the Missing In America Project. The three groups participating in the Aug. 18 project transported nearly 50 veterans to the cemetery. -Journal photo by Kate...
