The major function of Rolling Thunder®, Inc. is to publicize the POW-MIA issue; to educate the public of the fact that many American prisoners of war were left behind after all previous wars and to help correct the past and to protect future veterans from being left behind should they become prisoners of war-missing in action. We are also committed to helping American veterans from all wars!
When one American is not worth the effort to be found, we as American's have lost!
Rolling Thunder®, Inc. is not a motorcycle club. While many of our members do ride motorcycles others also drive cars and trucks in our events. Rolling Thunder®, Inc. membership is open to the public and you do not have to be a veteran.

Rolling Thunder®, Inc., Virginia Chapter 1 recently took part in escorting different units of the116th National Guard back home from deployment. Pictures below are of the return of Woodstock Heros!

WELCOME HOME, JOB WELL DONE!

Just a few of the many who ride to ensure our POW/MIA's are not FORGOTTEN!

Rolling Thunder along with Full House Cycles of Winchester, VA held a bike show on June 21. Here's a couple of the "Antique Class". Proceeds from the show are used to promote POW/MIA issues and help Veterans in the area.




An important activity of Rolling Thunder is the care of our valued veterans. Pictured below is our monthly Game Night at the Martinsburg, WV Veterans Medical Center.
