"United States Marine Corps Lance Corporal Jared Schmitz made his final pass down the highways of St. Louis in a military Hummer in the early afternoon of September 16, 2021. LCpl Schmitz was escorted by dozens of St. Charles, St. Louis, and Missouri Highway Patrol Officers in addition to untold hundreds of Patriot Guard motorcycle riders. Just after 1:30 p.m. CST, Missouri State Troopers began the roughly 30-mile motorcade from Baue Funeral Home, where Schmitz’s service was held, to his final resting place at Jefferson Barracks National Cemetery." ~ SOFREP
