Colorado, USA
Texas -- Dad (Ted/Frosty) and other like-minded riders will roll out to Mineral Wells, TX today to stand the flag line at the Vietnam Memorial Museum Ceremonies. Wall panels will be updated with the names of three U.S. Marines and three U.S. Army soldiers. Located just east of Mineral Wells on Hwy 180, this is the only permanent Vietnam Memorial Wall outside of Washington, DC.Tim is jealous. He knows that first stop will be for breakfast at the Green Frog in Jacksboro, TX. YUM!
Dad, hanging out by the helicopter... it is said... "It was all we could do to keep Ted out of the tool box and from working on this bird!!!"Dana Bowman arrived on the wings of Old Glory - Kool! He was a member of the U.S. Army’s elite parachute team, the Golden Knights -- He is a double amputee (lost both his legs in 1994)...
