The family and friends stood in the rain along with Jeff Rector’s team and sixty or so Vietnam veterans from Patriot Guard, who had escorted SGT Ingram’s family over 67 miles, from Monroe to Selfridge, on their bikes in that cold rain. SGT Ingram’s body was taken off the plane, with solemn and respectful ceremony, and the Patriot Guard again rode escort with the Michigan State Police leading the way. This act of unconditional care and support solidified in my mind why we were honoring the Vietnam veteran by making the film Our Vietnam Generation. On Friday of that same week, we were invited by Brian Merkle of Merkle Funeral Home to film SGT Ingram’s funeral. This was a sad day for the city of Monroe as one of their favorite sons was laid to rest - and, once again, MSG Jeff Rector and his team would perform the honors. Also attending were over 100 Vietnam veterans in support of the Ingram family.
