Notes: We will stage at the funeral home. The LEO escorted procession will depart there at 11:00am going to St. Sam Houston National Cemetery in San Antonio for the graveside service. Once we arrive there, we will come under the direction of the San Antonio Ride Captain. (SAT PGR may be tied up with an arriving KIA and we may be the only ones at the graveside)
Hydrate the night before, bring a bottle of water for yourself and a friend, and don’t forget the sunblock and eating prior to departure. Please be on time and fuel up just before arriving as there are no planned stops enroute with the LEO’s.
