DIRECTIONS TO FireBase-69 From I-95 Northbound: When approaching the airport, take exit 10 for 291 (Industrial Highway). Turn left at the light, following signs for Bartram ave. This turn takes you under I-95. Once on Bartram just count down the strees on your right until you get to 82nd St. That is the driveway into Engine 69. (If you get to Island Ave, you just went too far and must turn around.)

This was a SHORT NOTICE Welcome Home….But you wouldn’t have known unless you looked at the first email date.
Our Hero “US ARMY PV2 Shea Goto” just spent the last 6 months in Afghanistan fighting for the freedoms and way of life that we all know and love. We were asked to give him a welcome home with all the bells and whistles from “Mom” Dee Goto. Well … even with it being short notice, it went off without a hitch. I was fashionably late, of course, to the rally point so I met the group at the terminal. As I pulled up into the arrival terminal, 6 bikes where parked curb side with some flags blowing in the breeze. I parked and made my way up to the gate exit doors with the other WWR riders, “A-Heroes Welcome” and also a Chan. 6 Camera Man. I had already told mom to pull up to the curb where the Bikes parked, she asked a few times if it was ok with the Police?. ( This being PHL airport, and the fact that the PHL Airport administration and the Philadelphia Police are completely supportive of our Heroes and the work that our group does my response was ) “yes..They always take care of us here” We all waited for our Hero to arrive and when Shea came through the door it was a nice loud “Welcome Home” that brought the concourse and hallway to life. After the “Mug and Hug” there at the Airport, we took off heading towards the Bridge, under the flashing lights and sirens of the Philadelphia airport Police. They turned us over to the Cherry Hill Police just at the Walt Whitman Bridge. They arrive in a group and dominate the roads for whatever mission they are performing. I really wish I had a DASH cam from one of these Escorts to show everyone how professional and effective the Cherry Hill Police are while performing an escort. It is Poetry in Motion. Less then half a block from our destination is a Fire house, The Fire Fighters where outside standing at attention rendering a salute with a huge American Flag flying over them. We all pulled down the street and parked while the Yellow Ribbon Club, Cherry Hill Fire Department and EMS, Friends, family and neighbors all cheered and waved Flags to show this Hero and his family how much we all appreciate his service. After exchanging the magic coin, we had the chance to also thank and coin two other Heroes. They where Sheas recruiters who came to watch the welcome home. ( And again they actually thanked US for doing what we do … THAT always blows me away.)
Well … to a mother who is so very happy to have her son home safe THANK YOU. And to Shea, for stepping up and answering the call to duty, THANK YOU. We, The WWR, will always have your back here at home. It was an Honor to be there and watch a community come together in support of this young Hero. Thank you Shea for your service.
