The Patriot Guard Riders The Patriot Guard Riders is a diverse amalgamation of riders from across the nation. They have an unwavering respect for those who risk their very lives for America’s freedom and security.
It's not necessary if you ride a motocrycle, or what your political views are. It's not a requirement for members to be Veterans. It doesn't matter where you’re from or what your income is; you don’t even have to ride. The only prerequisite is Respect.
Their main mission is to attend the funeral services of fallen American heroes as invited guests of the family. Each mission undertakes two basic objectives:
1) Show their sincere respect for our fallen heroes, their families, and their communities
2) Shield the mourning family and their friends from interruptions created by any protestor or group of protestors.
They accomplish the latter through strictly legal and non-violent means.

Poem written by
Becky Rodenburg, for a school essay ...
"What Old Glory Means to me"
One flag of three colors,
For all kinds of faces,
A banner of glory,
For all different races. Laughing under the flag,
On a bright sunny day,
But a tear rolls down
For the soldiers who pay. Daring young soldiers
Who gave up their lives,
Who gave us our freedom,
Missing families and wives. Giving us choices,
To live and be free,
Giving us safety,
To let me be me. Laws for the people,
All over the land,
When someone needs help,
We all lend a hand Opportunities for me,
For a good education,
Allows for some choices,
Within our great nation Respect for the colors,
Of Red, White and Blue,
During all of our wars,
Every one of them flew. Years have gone by,
And we've lived to be free,
All of the people,
With you and with me.
