ALR/Patriot Guard Welcome Home Ride

SGT Shawn Smith and SGT Michael Rylant

Wichita, Kansas

Saturday December 23, 2006
Riders, we have two welcome homes at the Wichita airport tonight.  One is at 1710 (plane arrival time) and the other is at 2220.  If you can make both, you might consider going to dinner after the first one.
 
Note from Bronco 6:
Riders, very important to all ALR Chapter members!
When doing Homecomings at the Wichita Airport: 
Line up 2 and 4 wheeled vehicles inside the parking lot west of the airport terminal. 
Allow vehicles to arrive and depart freely. 
DO NOT PARK ON THE SIDE ROAD. 
DO NOT PARK IN PARKING LOT "C"  
We have been instructed by the Chief of Airport Security Police not to block traffic.  They respect what we are doing, and they want to ensure we can continue to welcome soldiers home at the airport without incident.
Thanks, Bronco 6
