The man that popped this popcorn was in a VA hospital his twin brother's name is on the wall they both loved popcorn as children he asks someone to take a bag to the wall and place it at the bottom of the panel where his brothers name is. There is an interesting mix of things left at the base of the wall the items are collected each day and stored away volunteeers come and clean the wall each morning.

I saw that Sarah Palin rode (BSR) with the group in DC on a black 2010.5 CVO Ultra.  Wonder if it was a members bike? 

They intervied some of the Vets and some thought Mrs Palin used the event to promote her political campaign.  I kind of thought that it was nice that she was there to support the Vets.  I doubt if the RFTW would have gotten Monday AM national news coverage if she hadn't been there.

Did the ride for the first time yesterday. It was a pretty humbling experience.

Although I did not serve in the military... it was an honor to ride with so many vets.

Run For The Wall (RFTW) is a coast to coast ride from California to Washington DC prior to Rolling Thunder both are great events and the opportunity to do either is a good experience during the RFTW you see lots of patriots across the United States.
