I hope by you receiving this letter that you are a person who cares about live American Prisoners of War being abandoned after our wars. Most recently, Pfc. (now Sgt.) Bowe R. Bergdahl, Afghanistan Prisoner of War captured on June 30, 2009, was seen alive in a video released by the Taliban. The Taliban stated they would trade Sgt. Bergdahl for 22 Taliban prisoners being held by the U.S. The United States government stated they do not negotiate with terrorists, yet soon after, Russian spies were traded for American spies and tremendous efforts were made to free hikers imprisoned in Iran. The 2 people that can make the decision to save POW Bowe Bergdahl are the President and the Secretary of State. Enclosed is the letter I sent to Secretary of State Clinton. Please change the wording to suit you and send a letter to Secretary of State Clinton asking that she do whatever is necessary to get Bowe Bergdahl home alive. Your letter may help save POW Bowe Bergdahl.
I hope you are planning on going with us on our Annual Ride for Freedom to LZ Rainelle/WV Veteran’s Reunion in Rainelle, WV, where we will spend a very patriotic weekend. This is our 8th year to stay in Rainelle for LZ Rainelle. For the first 17 years of the Ride for Freedom, starting in 1988, we went to Washington D.C. Rolling Thunder founder, Ray Manzo, wanted a major rally in different towns across the country to draw attention to our abandoned POW/MIAs. This will be the 25th year for the Ride for Freedom.
Everyone is welcome to come to Kentucky and travel with us, by any means, i.e. motorcycle, car, truck, etc., or meet us anywhere along the route. This is not a party, this is a mission for our POW/MIAs. You do not need to be a veteran, ride a motorcycle or belong to any organization or club. It is not about the motorcycles, leather or even being a veteran, even though a lot of us are veterans and ride. It is about the POW/ MIAs. If you care and want to do something for our POW/MIAs, then go with us. We have a breakdown truck, made possible by Task Force Omega of KY, Inc. and donations from others. If you want to help, donations may be sent to Task Force Omega of KY, Inc. at the address above. We are a non-profit 501(c)3 organization, so your donation is tax deductible. If you are riding a motorcycle and break down, we will bring you back to anywhere between Rainelle, WV and Louisville, KY for no charge. There is no charge to go, just cover your gas, room and personal expenses.
We will not have road guards. Police and other vehicles help us along the route. Read all of the road safety information on the back of the flyer. Please follow these safety guidelines if you are going with us. We must keep everyone safe or we cannot tell others about our POW/MIAs being unaccounted for. We do not want to make other motorists on the road mad, as we need everyone’s support on the POW/MIA issue. All exits, times and other information are on the flyer. I will lead the group. Everyone else, just follow and enjoy the ride, because you will be a minority. You will be an American that cares and are not afraid to show it.
Yes, we can make a difference. We helped pass “The Persian Gulf War POW/MIA Accountability Act” (Public Law 107-258), which will give protection to certain foreign nationals and their family if they assist in rescuing a live American Prisoner of War. This law applies to ANY FUTURE CONFLICT. The man who helped rescue Iraq POW Jessica Lynch (from West Virginia) and his family were protected due to this legislation.
For Honor and Freedom,
Danny “Greasy” Belcher, Executive Director
