Rolling Thunder Ch 1 Tennessee and chapters 2,4 and 6, gathered on Saturday May 23rd, at the hotel and left to go to Mountain Home National Cemetery in Johnson City Tennessee. The community came out and together we placed flags on each grave.

Later that day we all met at Southern Craft BBQ and had dinner.

On Sunday May 24th, we met at the hotel, and rode to Freedom Hall for our Memorial Day Ride. Lots of bikes joined us to remember the fallen. We will never forget!

The ride ended at The Tennessee Distillery, where we ate a meal and listened to The Edge band. Great turnout and Great weather! Thank you to everyone for your support! Thank you to John Incontrera and Rolling Thunder Tennessee Chapter 4, for hosting.

2 of these have no family, please show up for them if you are available.

The Rutherford County Medical Examiner’s Office, Rutherford County Emergency Medical Service, and the Middle Tennessee State Veterans Cemetery invites all veterans and individuals who would like to attend a memorial service for three unclaimed veterans.

The service will be held on Friday May 22, 2026, at 1pm (CST) at The Middle Tennessee State Veterans Cemetery, 7931 McCrory Lane, Nashville, TN 37221 on

Full Military Honors will be provided for:

Robert Hoover – Army - PV2 (Private Second Class) - Vietnam - 1973-1976
Owen Francis Thompson - Army - SP4 (Specialist 4) - Peace Time - 1978-1981
Jesse Lee Williams (AKA Jessie Lee Williamson) - Navy - F1C (Fireman First Class) - WWII - 1944-1946

Unfortunately, no living family members have been determined for either PV2 Hoover or SP4 Thompson.

F1C Williams (AKA Williamson) was found deceased in 1978 in LaVergne, TN, and was only recently identified, despite decades of searching and prior DNA analysis. Rutherford County Sheriff’s Office (RCSO) submitted forensic evidence to Othram, Inc. and, through advanced DNA testing and forensic genetic genealogy, produced a comprehensive profile. RCSO Detective Sergeant Richard Brinkley used this profile to locate an out-of-state family member who willingly assisted in the positive identification process.

Please join us in paying final respects and showing gratitude to all three of these veterans if you are able.

His image never tarnished, because he lived in truth, for honor and justice ! 🇺🇸

When an entire army kneels in silence… what is it about Chuck Norris that makes a lifetime of ‘commands’ never-ending? 🕊️🔥

There is a certain kind of silence that only arrives for men who lived larger than the roles they played — a silence that doesn’t feel empty, but full. Heavy with memory. Steady with respect. The kind that settles over a place when a life of purpose reaches its final horizon.

Today, that silence belongs to Chuck Norris.

Beneath a sky lined with flags he once honored in spirit and in service, a final vigil unfolds — not loud, not dramatic, but deeply human. Rows of uniformed soldiers kneel in quiet formation, their presence not commanded, but chosen. A gesture of respect that cannot be rehearsed. A recognition of a man who understood discipline not as performance, but as a way of life.

Among them stands Sylvester Stallone — not as a fellow icon, but as a brother paying tribute. The distance between cinema and reality dissolves here. There are no characters. No scripts. Just men bound by something older than fame — shared values, hard-earned respect, and the unspoken code of those who understand what it means to endure.

And scattered through this quiet moment are the symbols of a life that never needed embellishment.

A black belt — worn, not displayed.
A gi — softened by years of repetition and discipline.
A cowboy hat — simple, unmistakable, and entirely his.

These are not props.

They are proof.

Because Chuck Norris was never just a figure on a screen. He was a teacher without needing a classroom. A presence that reminded people — quietly, consistently — that strength begins with character. That control matters more than force. That a true warrior does not seek conflict, but stands ready when it comes.

For generations, he stood watch in the background of our lives — through stories, through roles, through the steady image of someone who never bent his principles for applause. And now, as the world stands still in return, the meaning of that presence becomes unmistakably clear.

This is not about loss alone.

It is about inheritance.

Because men like him do not disappear. They leave something behind — not just memories, but direction. A standard. A choice that echoes forward in every moment we are tested.

To choose honor when it is easier not to.
To choose courage when fear feels closer.
To stand firm when the world suggests compromise.

That is where he remains.

Not in the past.

But in every decision that reflects what he stood for.

The flags move gently in the wind. The soldiers remain still. The silence holds — not as an ending, but as acknowledgment.

And within it, one truth stands unshaken:

His watch may be over…
but the values he carried are still on duty.

Rest well, hero.

You didn’t just leave a legacy.

You left a way to live. 🕊️✊
