LEGION RIDERS PROVIDE ESCORT

FOR NATIONAL COMMANDER

Why is it when we see a group of motorcycle riders, we become fearful?  In the future, don’t jump to conclusions!  New Hampshire has a large contingent of motorcyclists known as the American Legion Riders who can be seen whenever and wherever their services are needed.
