Did you know that Trucking companies volunteer Trucks,Drivers and Trailers for the annual Wreaths Across America?

Each year 100's of companies volunteer their Trucks, Drivers, and Trailers to ensure that Wreaths Across America can deliver their wreaths to the over 1000 National Veterans Cemeteries for the annual wreath laying at Veterans Cemeteries Nationwide.

It is an honor that our company Quality Carriers participates each year. This year was special for our boss who was at the pentagon for a Hiring our Heroes event and was able to place a wreath on the fence looking out at Arlington. He also had the opportunity to meet and talk with several Gold Start moms and was amazed with the whole atmosphere of respect and dignity for these fallen warriors.

Quality Carriers and Troops To Tankers will participate for years to come in this worthy event. I hope you get a chance to experience it and teach others about it and let us not forget those that have paid the ultimate price for our nation. Salutes

CSM, I'm glad to see your company participate. There was concern that Wreaths across America would not have the funding through donations to complete 100% of the wreaths this year.

It is great that they volunteer to help out. This is a great organization and this year I helped place wreaths at the National Cemetery in Minnesota.

Very pleased to learn of your company's involvement, CSM Lynch. Presently Wreaths Across America is recognizing transportation companies and others involved in the shipment and escort of the wreaths with its "Rolling Ambassador" program. On some of the boxes in this photo, RollingAmbassadors.com is visible.

“Every year we have so many professional drivers, bikers, police officers and other first responders, ask us how they can get involved, even if they can’t transport wreaths,” said Karen Worcester, executive director, Wreaths Across America. https://soundcloud.com/wreathsacrossamericaradio/wreaths-ac
