The roar of hundreds of thousands of motorcycles will fill the streets of our nation's capital this weekend in tribute to military members who have paid the ultimate sacrifice to our country as prisoners of war (POW) or who have been reported missing in action (MIA) as Rolling Thunder 2010 gets underway in Washington, D.C. Started in 1987 by four Vietnam Veterans as "a demonstration to bring awareness to the plight of POWs and soldiers who are MIA," the event has grown from its humble beginnings into a monumental patriotic tribute to soldiers and veterans from all wars that is appropriately held over Memorial Day weekend.
