Veterans Corner | 2nd Edition

Veterans Corner | 2nd Edition

“What saved my life, I guess, is that the German machine gun was so powerful that after a few shots, it would kick up into the air, so they would have to stop and reset.”

A couple of months back we introduced a new initiative that allowed us to help show our gratitude to veterans nation wide. In case you need a quick refresher, we have partnered with GigSmart to donate flags, flagpoles, as well as all the installations to 2 veterans each month.

Veterans Corner, as we call it, is not only a way to say thank you and show our appreciation, but it’s also a way for us to also share their amazing stories with our community. Let’s take a look at our most recent veterans.

We speak for everyone when we say thank you from the bottom of our hearts. You guys are truly honorable men. For more on Mr. Franklin’s incredible story, check out this article.

As a part of our initiative, Eagle Mountain is donating all the products while GigSmart is offering to provide all the installation needed, free of charge. GigSmart is a company that allows you to hire on-demand workers for almost any project you need to help get the job done.

Our products that we are donating each month include, the Flag Sentinel, which is a simple and effective flagpole addition that will keep your flag flying tangle free all day, every day. Included with that is our Spinning Porch Style Flagpole which comes in 4 colors, silver, white, wood grain, and black. Last but not least, the American Flag of course! Our tried and true, comes with embroidered stars and sewn stripes and is 100% made in America!

Once the products are shipped out, GigSmart comes and takes care of the rest! They will schedule a qualified worker to come out and fully install all of the products listed above.

Stay tuned for our 3rd edition of Veterans Corner next month! In the meantime, want to find out ways to help us give back? Check out some of these great resources.
