Honor Mission
PVT Emerson Lee Clopper, Jr.
U.S.Army
Monday September 25, 2023
IGNC

The daughter of Pvt Emerson Lee Clopper, Jr. has requested our presence to
attend the interment of her father at IGNC on Monday, September 25, 2023 at
10:00 am.  She will be the only attendee that will be there and asked if we
could attend as well to set up a flag line and stand so her father has some
friends to be there for him. PVT CLopper served on the ground in the
Vietnam War, joining the Army in 1956 and discharged 1958.  The last two
years of his life he was in a veterans facility in a wheelchair and
preferred not to talk about the war.  He asked his daughter to take his
ashes on a ride on a Harley which she was able to do.  He worked several
small jobs such as working at the York Fair operating rides, he had a food
cart at one time, drove trucks and delivered newspapers.  HIs one wish was
to be buried at a National Cemetery.
Emerson is a true American patriot who honored his country so now it is our
turn to show him the honor and respect he so deserves.
