Last Patrol

Men and women, Veterans of wars past and present, mounted a 180 mile roadmarch to draw attention to the lack of a Veteran's Administration Hospital in South Texas. Arriving at the Alamo on Veteran's Day, they are heroes of the 100,000 plus Vets who have to drive two to three hours to wait in line for hours at the San Antonio VA.

I got behind this RX-8 with plenty of details and high-po stuff on it. Not exactly a modest vehicle. But it had two fish logos, one with the word 'Jesus' in it. I am guessing that Jesus would not be driving an expensive car until he could help out a few of the poor first.
