Greg Hervieux races cars. He began racing Quarter Midget Cars at the age of 10 years old and always had the POW/MIA sticker on his car and a POW/MIA patch on his uniform.

Before every race a car would go out and round the track with the American flag during the National Anthem. Greg asked why the POW/MIA flag was not out on the track also. At that time, they asked the officials if a car carrying the POW/MIA Flag could be added to the program and they agreed.
(See photo below.)

Greg put his car on display at his local school and was often asked about the patch on his uniform and the sticker on the car. He would then explain what the meaning of it was to the students.

Greg has visited the Vietnam Memorial Wall in Washington D.C. and to the Garden in Arlington. Doing so gave him a hole new defenition and meaning.

Since that time Greg and his family have moved south and he is now 17 years old. He still has the POW/MIA sticker and patch on his uniform and has also added it to his helmet. He is asked alot about it and continues to explain the reason. He is in the process of having a special POW/MIA paint scheme done on it for the 2001 season. The car will also have a new look to it. He is very dedicated to the POW/MIA Freedom Fighters and would be also happy to do personal appearances for organizations. Greg can be contacted via email and visit his website at Family Pride Bandolero Racing

Thank you Greg for your continued dedication to our missing heroes ...

We Salute You!
