Dublin’s Street Banners Pay Homage To Local Veterans

The 15 banners will be on display through Veterans Day.

DUBLIN, CA — Fifteen new street banners in Dublin honor local veterans and active duty members of the U.S. Armed Forces. The banners recently debuted and will be up through Veterans Day, according to the City of Dublin.

City officials said each banner is sponsored by a community member or group as a tribute to a current or retired service member living in Dublin. Councilwoman Janine Thalblum, who is U.S. Army veteran, and the late Don Biddle, who also served in the U.S. Army, are among those being honored this year.

Those interested in seeing each of the banners can take the one mile walking tour. The 15 banners are located along Dougherty Road between Scarlett Drive and Amador Valley Boulevard, close to Camp Parks Reserve Forces Training Area.
