Part 1 Staging:  Plan to arrive not later than 11:15 a.m. at the Moore 
Funeral Home, 4216 South Bowen, Arlington, Texas 76016.  We will place the flags 
prior to 11:30  a.m. and stand the flag line until  shortly after commencement of 
the funeral service at 12:00 a.m.  At that time we will remove the flags and 
prepare  for the mission Part 2.  Big flag bike riders and other riders  
wishing to ride as an escort will remain with the funeral procession to escort  the 
family to the cemetery.  Arlington Police Escort Service will  escort the 
funeral procession to the cemetery.  Patriot Guard Riders  will not provide road 
guard services.

Mission Part 2: Interment Service at DFW National Cemetery, August 4,  2008, 
2:00  p.m. 
Shortly after 11:00 a.m., following the beginning of the funeral service we 
will  "pull" the Flags and the Ride Captain and Patriot Guard Riders not 
providing  escort will proceed to DFW National Cemetery.  On arrival (based on 
availability of shelter ”A”)  we will place all flags at Shelter “A” and stand by 
for the arrival of the  family and the funeral procession. All Patriot Guard 
Riders park on Patriot  Avenue opposite  Shelter “A”.   
Special  Safety Information:  Mountain Creek Parkway  north from I-20 is  
open, but still under construction. It  is recommend you do NOT  use that end of 
Mountain Creek  Parkway.   
Currently, the best avenue of approach is to:  (1) take Loop 12 south of 
I-30, transition to Spur 408 and exit on Kiest  Blvd., turning right (west) on 
Kiest; (2) Via I-20, go north on Spur 408,  exiting on Kiest, turning left 
(west); go over the hill, by the college, to the  stoplight; turn right on Mountain 
Creek Parkway. This will take  you to the front of DFW National Cemetery. 
Weather:  The weather is expected to be near 101 degrees F, humid and clear.  
The  weather presents a serious need for hydration by all participants.  
Drink  adequate amounts of water and or electrolyte enhanced liquid prior to and 
during  the mission.   
Iron Horses if you can, cages are always welcome  and appreciated. The 
Support Truck with flags and water will be there.   
Please remember that our mission is to  stand tall and silent, with honor and 
respect for this veteran and his  family. 
Respectfully Submitted,  
Bill Crow (LASER) 
North  Texas PGR Ride Captain
