Pechanga FORGETS their Military History on Memorial Day. Thank You Veterans, For Defending Our Country

The Hunter Family, disenrolled from the Pechanga Band of Luiseno Indians after over 200 years of living in the Temecula area have many veterans who served in our military.  Once the Pechanga Resort & Casino opened, corruption lead to exterminating these veterans from their membership rolls and history.
