As you know we get information about people and things we feel merits attention by Members of the Lightship Sailors Association from time to time. This is one of those times.

My thanks to Mike Ash, friend and fellow Legionnaire for this story!

This truck is awesome.

Here is some info from the owner/operator.

Their names are John & Amy Holmgren. They live in Shafer Minn.
They thought this would be a nice tribute to the people that lost
their lives on 9/11.
 

It has the name of each person that lost their life that day.
This concept was thought up by John and Amy, and totally paid for by
them. Applied Graphics in Fargo ND did most of the work and Mr. Paul Kosenski
did the hand painting. 

Mr.Holmgren got to meet Country Singer Darryl Worley,
who Sang the song "Have You Forgotten".   He has been pulled over by the police 3 times, just so they could get their picture taken by his truck.

 He plans on attending the Mid America Truck show in Louisville KY in March.
The truck is called the Rolling 9-11 Memorial.  Once again it has all
the names of the people that were killed on 9/11, plus some amazing graphics on the side of the Tractor.

On behalf of all loyal citizens of this GREAT NATION THANK YOU

John & Amy Holmgren !

GOD BLESS AMERICA!!
