Hey everyone. This Saturday there will be a convoy of Wounded Warriors headed out of SA to Port O'Connor in the early morning. I've included the details below. My family will be out there to greet them as they pass through La Vernia. I know Bigler and his family will be out in force. If anyone is interested in joining us, please let me know.

Here's the email I got from my neighbor.


There will be a convoy of wounded warriors and their families in 5
buses coming down Highway 87 on the morning of May 22nd. They leave
BAMC @ 6:45 am and are heading to Port O'Connor. They expect to pass
through La Vernia between about 7:00 and 7:15 am and Stockdale between
7:15 and 7:30 am. We are hoping to have as many people out there waving
to them as possible. I'll be out there for sure! Let's support them.
Bring your American Flag. Details are below.

LTC William A. McCaskill. I am a wounded warrior at Brooke Army
Medical Center (BAMC) located at Fort Sam Houston. On May 22nd five
buses will depart BAMC at 6:45 a.m. headed down 87 South to Victoria and
on to Port O'Connor. The buses will contain 300 wounded warriors and
family members bound for a day of fishing in Port O'Connor, an event
known as Warrior's Weekend http://web.mac.com/warriorsweekend/Warriors_Weekend/Home.html

The buses will be
escorted by the San Antonio Chapter of the Blue Knights Law Enforcement
Motorcycle Club http://www.blueknightstxiv.com/Home/tabid/36/Default.aspx
, Wilson County Deputies courtesy of Sheriff Joe D. Tackitt, Jr., La
Vernia Police Officers courtesy of Chief Bobby Hyatt, as well as
Constable George Scoggins, Fire Marshal Curtis R. Fowler of Stockdale.
The convoy will be coming through La Vernia between 7:00 and 7:15 and
Stockdale between 7:15 and 7:30.

I wanted to see if
there would be any interest in having Girl and Boy Scout Troops along
the 87 South route to wave American flags or posters the morning of the
22nd as the buses travel through the respective communities.

Thank you!
LTC William A.
McCaskill

Kenny, I'm not sure. Maybe Bigler has some info. I think his boys Cub Scout Leader was plugged into this thing a few weeks ago.

Thanks Randy.

By the way, all of the 4 things involve Rum and/or beer, right?
