Swift Transportation truck driver of Swift’s 9/11 Wrapped Truck, Richard M., helped deliver wreaths to the Arlington National Cemetery for Wreaths Across America. He and a number of other truck drivers came together to help supply over 30,000 volunteers with wreaths. Approximately 260,000 wreaths were placed on every headstone.

“Being able to represent Swift as part of Wreaths Across America was a privilege and an honor I will never forget. It was truly an amazing experience,” said Richard during an interview.

Richard attended a special ceremonial dinner in Arlington. To his pleasant surprise, he learned that the keynote speaker at the dinner was Medal of Honor recipient Clint Romesha. Richard, an Army veteran himself, actually served alongside Clint! The two had a warm reunion and Richard felt incredibly honored to participate.

“This has been such a truly special event to partake in,” Richard said. We celebrate Richard, Clint, and all service members for their efforts with Wreaths Across America in honor of our nation's fallen heroes.
