The Recon Raider Remembrance Ride
DAV is honored to be charitable beneficiaries of the Recon Raider Remembrance Ride and grateful for the unique service and sacrifices of this elite community.
At DAV, we honor the fallen by caring for their survivors and the brothers and sisters they left behind.
DAV empowers veterans to lead high-quality lives with respect and dignity. It is dedicated to a single purpose: keeping our promise to America's veterans. DAV does this by ensuring that veterans and their families can access the full range of benefits available to them, fighting for the interests of America's injured heroes on Capitol Hill, providing employment resources to veterans and their families, and educating the public about the great sacrifices and needs of veterans transitioning back to civilian life. DAV, a nonprofit organization with more than 1 million members, was founded in 1920 and chartered by the U.S. Congress in 1932.
About R4
Marines from the Force Reconnaissance and Raider community and others will honor the 201 who have fallen in service to our nation through a motorcycle ride from Marine Corps Base Camp Lejeune to Arlington National Cemetery and back to Camp Lejeune. The mission is designed to raise maximum awareness of the sacrifices of those killed in action or in training and raise funds to support charities who assist the community, its families and survivors.
The Recon Raider Remembrance Ride will be a convoy style operation conducted by veterans. Each participating motorcycle will represent a fallen Marine Raider or Reconnaissance Marine. Along the journey, riders will pass through communities where some surviving family members reside to honor the fallen and pay respects to Gold Star families who shared in the sacrifice of our national defense.
The event is presented by Asymmetric Solutions, a global leader in private special operations capabilities.
