Patriots,
The family of AWS1 James Philip Buriak, United States Navy has asked the patriot guard to stand for him as he once stood for us. While serving our country AWS1 Buriak passed away when his helicopter went down off the coast of San Diego, CA when he served as a naval air crewman rescue swimmer with HSC-8. He spent time training in San Diego & Pensacola before being assigned to HSC-8 in Coronado CA. He deployed aboard the USS Theodore Roosevelt for two back to back tours and mutable detachments before departing for the USS Abraham Lincoln.
Please join us in honoring & escorting this true American hero back home.
This will be a One Day mission.

NOTE: Safety is of our utmost priority. Every effort possible is made in planning and executing the PGR Mission statement in a manner that minimizes the inherit dangers of riding a motorcycle, including riding in groups of all sizes and any situation. While the NCPG, and it's riders have a remarkable safety record in the execution of our missions, infrequently members have been injured in unforeseen accidents. In an effort to mitigate the risk of preventable accidents, all attendees who wish to ride in a Patriot Guard motorcycle escort or ride are asked to attend the pre-mission briefing. It will include a safety briefing, and any unique ride information known to our RCIC that may be specific to the mission. Member safety and well-being is always a principal ongoing concern, our RCIC's are asked to stand-down from any mission that cannot be accomplished in relative safety or unreasonable risk. This includes both rides and flag lines in inclement weather and conditions. It remains each individual PGR member's responsibility to ride within their own comfort zone and be cognizant of their surroundings and skill limitations as well as any physical needs or limitations. If the ride and/or mission conditions present challenges beyond your skill, comfort, or needs you are expected to exercise good judgment in foregoing any planned participation
