Rio Grande Valley Patriot Guard Riders: Wounded Warrior Program Information

The Patriot Guard Riders Mission Statement

Mission Statement:

The Patriot Guard Riders is a 100% volunteer, federally registered 501(c)3 non-profit organization which ensures dignity and respect at memorial services honoring fallen military heroes, first responders, and honorably discharged veterans.

Vision Statement:

The Patriot Guard Riders is a diverse amalgamation of riders from across the nation. We have one thing in common besides motorcycles. We have an unwavering respect for those who risk their very lives for America’s freedom and security, including fallen military heroes, first responders, and honorably discharged veterans. If you share this respect, please join us.

We don’t care what you ride or if you ride, what your political views are, or whether you’re a hawk or a dove. It is not a requirement that you be a veteran. 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.

Our main mission is to attend the funeral services of fallen American heroes as invited guests of the family. Each mission we undertake has two basic objectives:

1. Show our sincere respect for our fallen heroes, their families, and their communities.

2. Shield the mourning family and their friends from interruptions created by any protester or group of protesters.

We accomplish the latter through strictly legal and non-violent means.

To those of you who are currently serving and fighting for the freedom of others, at home and abroad, please know that we are backing you. We honor and support you with every mission we carry out, and we are praying for a safe return home for all.

Wounded Warrior Program Information

Russell, on behalf of Combat Marine Outdoors and our Heroes that we support a covered trailer is needed. We would like to request a 8.5 x 18 or 20 trailer to transport our off road vehicles and wheelchairs and protect them from the environment down these dusty roads in South Texas. These all terrain vehicles are crucial to maneuver at our destination and it also allows our wounded with leg injuries to move around without assistance. It is extremely beneficial in the rehabilitation of our wounded and helping them get as close to normal as possible. As recently as three months from the day they were injured we have had them operating independently hunting, fishing, and moving around in the outdoors.

I appreciate your assistance in helping us support our Wounded Warriors and protect our gear.

Donations can be done through www.combatmarineoutdoors.org website and through our PayPal system by using a credit card, or mail donations to Combat Marine Outdoors, 6610 Malibu Drive, Houston, Texas, 77092.
