Code Of Support

Code of Support Mission information is now available on the PGR National Website.  Routes and timings from across the country are now in the thread.  Dates/Times will be updated as additional States chime in.  As we get a little closer, the Maryland RCs will determine rally points and routes to join up with the capsule.  Any Rider is free to join up with this relay at any point they wish. 

You must have a PGR National account to see the following link:  Code of Support Relay thread

Code of Support

• I am an American. I know that the men and women in our Armed Forces are prepared to give their lives to defend my country, my way of life and the blessings of liberty throughout the world. I am committed to their perpetual recognition, appreciation and support.

• As they have sworn to defend me and protect our country, so will I pledge to support them in every way that I can, and to avoid any action that would increase their risk. I will further do my part to ensure that they are never sent into harm’s way without all of the necessary resources to protect them and to fulfill their mission.

• If they become prisoners of war, are missing in action, are wounded, or lose their lives, I will keep faith with them and their loved ones. I will not rest until we find them, heal them, and return them to their comrades, their loved ones and their nation.

• For our military veterans, I pledge unfailing recognition and appreciation for their contributions to our national defense and our welfare. I will not forget my nation’s responsibility to provide for their continued well-being and meaningful compensation for their sacrifice.

• I understand that our service men and women do not make national policy, but are sworn to obey their civilian leadership and defend the constitution. I will respect their faithful service to the nation and always give them my unqualified support.

• I will never forget that our service men and women are fighting for my freedom and are dedicated to the principles which make our country free. I will share the responsibility for preserving that freedom with those who proudly wear the uniform of the United States of America.

The link at the heading will take you to the Code of Support website.  This is an upcoming mission for Patriot Guard Riders across the country.  Top Military officials have requested the PGR escort the actual scroll across the Nation from Camp Pendleton California to the Pentagon.  The Scroll will be delivered to the Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff on September 11, 2011.  More information will be coming as we get closer to the dates.
