Operation Tango Mike, Kelseyville

Operation Tango Mike is a community effort sending care packages and support to our troops. This mission is accomplished through the support of veterans, community organizations, and volunteers.

Patriot Guard Riders, Middletown

Our main mission is to attend the funeral services of fallen American heroes as invited guests of the family. Each mission we undertake has two basic objectives:

1. Show our sincere respect for our fallen heroes, their families, and their communities.
2. Shield the mourning family and their friends from interruptions created by any protester or group of protesters.

We accomplish the latter through strictly legal and non-violent means.

Veterans of Foreign Wars

Our mission is to foster camaraderie among United States veterans of overseas conflicts. To serve our veterans, the military, and our communities. To advocate on behalf of all veterans.
