On Saturday July 8th the Thin Blue Line LEMC participated in a fund raiser ride for Aubrey. The ride started at Exalted Church at 5319 Williamson Rd, Roanoke VA. The ride ended at the FOP in Radford,VA.
The Honor Ride featured famed Texas Ranger Captains Frank Hamer, and Maney Gault. COG detailed highlights of their lives and career, including Frank’s son, Billy Hamer, who was killed in action on Iwo Jima during World War II. He shared scripture and we all toasted to these fallen heroes.
For history buffs, Frank Hamer was documented to have been involved with 50 shootings, 17 of which he received injuries, and of those, four were life threatening. Maney Gault was his best friend who he recruited into the Texas Rangers. These two were credited for tracking down and killing Bonnie and Clyde.
