2,000 miles and three days to fulfill Veteran’s last wish
WWII Veteran wanted to be buried beside his mother
A group of volunteers recently escorted the remains of WWII and Korean War Veteran Colonel Wallace Taylor on his final journey to his hometown of Louisville, Kentucky, as part of a Final Mile ceremony.
The trip took three days and nearly 2,000 miles. It fulfilled Taylor’s wish to be put to rest in a burial site beside his mother.

The trip was part of Haley’s Final Mile program, a partnership between the James A. Haley Veterans Hospital in Tampa, Florida, and the Combat Veterans Motorcycle Association that ensures no Veteran makes the trip to their final resting place alone.
