Description
English: United States President Barack Obama greets members of the Rolling Thunder organisation in the Diplomatic Reception Room of the White House on 25 May 2012. The Rolling Thunder are an American military veterans and motorcycling organisation which supports United States war veterans, prisoners of war, and personnel missing in action in past U.S. wars. Each year during the Memorial Day weekend, nearly half a million motor cyclists perform a "rolling thunder run" to Washington D.C. to visit the Vietnam Veterans Memorial Wall and other memorials, and to hear speeches by members, supporters, military officials and politicians. The Rolling Thunder website explains, "Their arrival would be announced by the roar of their motorcycles, a sound not unlike the 1965 bombing campaign against North Vietnam dubbed Operation Rolling Thunder."
