this is my first crack at a web site so it will get better over time! I am a Veteran & I know the pain of some of my brothers coming home. I have decided to build a Harley from the frame up, with the help of some very eager locals & award it to a soldier who has hit hard times or been through hell overseas.
My hope is that others will do something similar in their home town to show a vet that we all care! Like a home reno, a car, what ever you can think of that will help a vet or a widow!
For those of you who visit my web site & like what I am trying to do, please pass this link along so the word spreads.
As for Canada & the U.S.A. there is no border! that is a stupid line drawn in the dirt by the government. When our troops are in Afghanistan or any other war zone, we are all brothers in my opinion!
I support ALL allied forces!
