'Standing for Those Who Stood for US'

Sunday was the Rolling Thunder parade, which takes place every Memorial Day weekend. Thousands of motorcyclists from around the country ride in the nation’s capital, continuing their 30-year tradition to make sure that the nation’s fallen haven’t been forgotten.

A group stopped by the tree we were sheltering under because of the heavy rain to put on some jackets. I thought this one was interesting.

I think I’ll end this gallery here. Thanks so much for all the comments and votes!

The many patches are a story in themselves. I like the spontaneous feeling from this candid image. A strong composition with an important message!! VV

Great capture of this patriotic jacket. She must have put a lot of work into it.
