Company owners Jim Digby and Cindy Bedore commissioned the addition of the flag decals immediately following the Sept. 11 terrorist attacks.
"We are proud to have all of our drivers carry the American flag on their truck as a reminder of those lost and the importance of national unity," said Bedore. The decals were made exclusively for Digby by the Gecko Group in Nashville, Tenn.
Digby Truck Line is a family owned and operated business with a history of long haul transport dating back to the 1930s.
"It was truckers that moved up west from Plymouth Rock and it will be truckers who lead the way as we rebuild our American Spirit," noted Digby. "They are the backbone of America and have the toughest job out there. Every time I shake the hand of one of my drivers I am proud."
