The Trussville Rotary Daybreak Club decorated City Hall with ribbons for Veterans Day.
Since 2005, the Trussville Daybreak Rotary Club has held a tradition of decorating City Hall with ribbons for Veterans Day. For the past few years, the club has partnered with the Trussville Fire Department on this patriotic project.
Rotarian Linda Burns, who came up with the idea, believes it is important to say "thank you" to our veterans. Linda’s son, Justen, is in the Army, so service men and women hold a special place in her heart. Justen will retire in June with 20 years of service.
The club has several veterans among its members, so the observation is especially important to these Rotarians. At its weekly meeting Nov. 11, several veterans spoke, as well as guest speaker Navy Capt. Bobby Markovich, Commander, Strike Fighter Wing, U.S. Pacific Fleet (CSFWP), who joined the Zoom meeting from California. Markovich is an F-18 fighter pilot.
