The Rockport Pilot will publish its annual tribute to active and reserve service men and women, as well as retired and disabled veterans Saturday, May 20. The deadline for placing a free tribute, or paid advertisement, is Tuesday, May 16.
Submit a photo of the person you wish to honor, as well as their name, rank, branch, whether they are active or not, hometown, and the name of parents, grandparents, and spouse.
One can also include a six-word or less special note to his or her armed forces member. It will be printed under the information.
Please email this information to info@rockportpilot.com (Subject line TRIBUTE), or hand-deliver to The Pilot at 1002 Wharf St. in downtown Rockport. There is no charge for tributes.
One can advertise on these pages, as well, to show our brave soldiers how much they are supported. Call (361) 729-9900 for information about advertising rates.
