Armstrong supports Oxford’s veteran banner program honoring local heroes

Armstrong recently supported the town of Oxford in its ongoing effort to honor local veterans through a banner program.

The initiative is a partnership between the American Legion and the Oxford Chamber of Commerce. It features banners displayed on light poles throughout the town, each one bearing the name and a photo of a veteran with a connection to Oxford. These banners serve as powerful reminders of the individuals who have served their country and made significant contributions to the local community.

Armstrong employees had the honor of meeting Mr. Caldwell, a local veteran, and his wife during the visit on April 29. Mr. Caldwell shared stories of his time in the military and joined the team, walking the streets of Oxford to view many of the banners, including his own and that of his brother.

Mr. Caldwell and his brother, who also served in the military, grew up in Oxford. Today, their banners hang in front of the apartment where they once lived, steps away from the parking lot where they caught the bus to boot camp. This meaningful placement adds a deep personal layer to the tribute.

Armstrong is proud to support community initiatives like Oxford's veteran banner program, which pays a lasting and visible tribute to the men and women who have served in the armed forces.
