Being a Patriot Guard Rider I knew it was going to bother me and I was not disappointed. I have been involved in too many military funerals.
The emotions we experience are always waiting just below the surface. I had to stop the movie several times to get them under control.
This soldier's death was prior to the formation of the PGR or some of us would have been there for the family.
I have met several of the military escorts. That has to some of the thoughest duty there is. God bless them all.
