Thank you to everyone who attended the mission to honor Sgt. Erik May in Valley Center and Wichita, KS.
Everyone did an outstanding job. We thank all Patriot Guard members for your continued commitment
and dedication to stand guard for our Fallen Heroes. We also thank Valley Center citizens and members of all law enforcement
agencies who gave Erik a Hero's welcome-home escort and final sendoff. Sgt. May's family and friends, and all his fellow soldiers both stateside and in Afghanistan extend their appreciation and thanks to everyone who were present, as well as to those who could not participate but offered their prayers. Strength and Honor. Darkhorse | |||
