Portraits of Honor Ride  

In remeberance of Vets from all Conflicts and Peace Keepers were honored by a truck painted with all the Soldiers from the Afghan Mission, and other Vets.Dave Sopho spent 3.5 years painting this display of  Men and Women who gave their lives for freedom.When you enter the truck, a feeling of sadness comes over you. As you know they died for our freedom.The Members of Veterans Motorcycle Group,3rd CAV Motorcycle Group,Bikers For Christ,and CMA were on Hand for Support, and a Run to Honor The Vets.The Truck Traveled Alberta Destinations with an Escort of Honor.We traveled the Lacombe Alberta to Calgary Route as others were on site for the rest of the Journey across Canada.I Must say there is a scence of Loyalty and Commitment to t hose in Arms. The Sherri'ffs Department escouted the 75 Riders to Calgary ,Closing off ramps through the City of Calgary.A rememeberance to last a life time. Being a Retired Meber of the Forces.Our Hearts and Prayers go out to all the families that served this Nation to keep it Free.GOD BLESS OUR TROOPS.
