Korean War Army Veteran

The family of Army Veteran Robert D. Trump has requested the Patriot Guard Riders to stand to honor his service to our nation at his funeral and interment Saturday, November 15. Bob served as a radio operator in Munich during the Korean War. Following his time in the Army, he also served in the PA National Guard. He continued his service to his country as a member of the Hanover Allied Veterans Council Honor Guard. Bob was an avid motorcyclist and a member of the Gold Wing Road Riders Association. Though not PGR, Bob was definitely one of us. Robert Trump is a patriot who served our country with honor and now it’s our turn to stand and honor him.

Epilogue:
Three Patriot Guard Riders stood to honor Mr. Trump Saturday, November 15. Mr. Trump was an avid motorcyclist, and a specially modified trailer was used to transport Mr. Trump’s casket to the cemetery for interment. Mr. Trump’s own Gold Wing trike was used to tow the trailer. A few years ago, Mr. Trump and his wife rode the trike on a cross country trip. It was very fitting that it was used to carry him home.

Thank you to the Patriot Guard Riders for standing to honor Dad today. It was a fitting tribute to his service to his country and his enjoyment of motorcycles.
