Vietnam veteran honored with new truck in Iowa

ANKENY, Iowa —

A Vietnam veteran in Ankeny, Iowa, was honored today with a new truck as part of Progressive’s “Keys to Progress” program.

Gary Holub served in Vietnam as a tank commander with the U.S. Army. The vehicle donation is part of a program that has provided more than 1,200 vehicles to veterans across the country since 2013.

Holub’s son said the truck will make it easier for his father to attend medical appointments.

“He goes about once a month, sometimes two or three times a month,” Holub’s son said.

“I got an old work van, and I drive that and take him. Now I can park my van and take him in the truck, or he can go himself,” he said.
