AARP has a nice video feature on Rolling Thunder, a nonprofit organization dating back to 1995. Members bring attention to soldiers who are prisoners of war or missing in action. Annually on Memorial Day weekend, Veterans and non-veterans gather together in Washington, D.C., to ride through the city to remember and to remind.
All the people featured in this video are part of Run for the Wall, a group that commemorates all POWs and MIAs by traveling from California to Washington, D.C.
