As Skip reported in this post, on Thursday, the Lakes Region of NH played host to the 18th annual Freedom Ride sponsored by the Northeast Network POW/MIA. Here is a YouTube of the many hundreds of bikes and bikers, along with other supporters as they arrived at Heskey Park in Meredith, NH for the enhanced version of the longest continuous POW/MIA vigil in the country. The video captures the size and number of participants, as well as the opening prayer of the ceremony.

The event consisted of several parts and many speakers who were very moving. The Blue and Gold Star Mothers of NH were honored as part of the ceremony, with everyone’s attention focused on those yet to return: The POWs and MIAs. In the next few days, I will be adding several more YouTubes of the event, featuring the speeches themselves, which were very moving and powerful.
