​Run For The Wall - Southern Route Outreach Mission
25 Riders, of which National League of POW/MIA Families Board members were 2, separated from the larger pack of 300+ motorcycles on a cross-country journey to embrace the mother of MIA Maj Bobby Jones, USAF, Mrs. Christine Jones.  Mrs. Jones is 102.5 - as she says, “the half is important.”  This photo captures MIA family members present for the visit; an MIA mother, MIA sister, MIA brother-in-law (best friend too), two MIAI daughters, MIA grandson and MIA great granddaughter.
