English: Rolling Thunder is an American military veterans and motorcycling organization that 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 attend Rolling Thunder Run to the Wall, a motorcycle rally in 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."
