It is a most distinct honor and privilege for the Patriot Guard Riders to stand a flag line of honor and respect for Giuseppe Joseph Marino, 83, and to escort him to his final resting place at Jefferson Barracks National Cemetery. US Marine Corps veteran Marino proudly served his country from November 1958 to April 1960 as an Infantryman with the Headquarters Company, H&S Battalion, MCRD, San Diego CA, earning the rank of Private First Class (PFC).
PFC Marino, a grateful nation thanks you and is indebted to you for your honorable service. Your sacrifices have granted us the freedoms we continue to enjoy to this very day. Thank you and Godspeed.
