Staff Sgt. Jonathan Turner was a true American hero. He volunteered to serve in the United States Marine Corps and did an excellent job while with the organization. He endured seven tours of Iraq and later relocated to California, where he died from a combat-related injury at the young age of just 41-years-old.
Because the Staff Sergeant died thousands of miles from his family, who lived in Georgia, the United States military planned to send his remains in a brown UPS box via ground shipping.
One veterans’ group heard about the military’s plans and decided that Staff Sgt. Turner deserved better than to be shipped across the country in a brown UPS box. They gathered their group of bikers and decided to do something that no one asked them to do but was very much appreciated.
