Fleet Response has once again transformed its Hudson headquarters into a striking patriotic display, with more than 60 large American flags lining the company’s lawn as Memorial Day approaches.
The annual tribute, created in partnership with the Northeast Ohio Foundation for Patriotism (NEOPAT), is part of the Operation Flags of Freedom initiative designed to honor veterans and active military personnel while bringing the community together.
Each flag was installed by NEOPAT volunteers and represents what organizers call a symbol of freedom, sacrifice and service. Military branch flags also stand prominently at the Fleet Response entrance.
“Every flag is a story. A reminder of someone’s courage, someone’s sacrifice,” said Allison Lanzilotta, President and CEO of Fleet Response. “We’re proud to continue this tradition in partnership with NEOPAT, and we’re especially honored to celebrate the veterans within our own team.”
The display holds personal meaning for Fleet Response employees, particularly veterans and those with military family members. Company officials say the flags serve as a daily source of pride and connection for workers.
The community has responded positively to the display, with local residents sharing compliments about the patriotic tribute during their daily routines, according to Jeff Fender, Vice President of Sales and Marketing at Fleet Response.
NEOPAT, the nonprofit organization behind the initiative, works to honor and support military service members, veterans and their families throughout Northeast Ohio. The organization provides both emotional and financial support while promoting patriotism through community programs.
The flag display will remain in place through the Memorial Day holiday weekend.
