The Town of Veteran logo was designed by George W. Acker, former Highway
Superintendent for the Town of Veteran, in the mid 1960’s. The Town
adopted it for use on its highway equipment, etc. The design of the
logo pays respect to the many men and women from the Town of Veteran who
answered the call and proudly served their country throughout history.
This striking emblem is proudly displayed on the Town of Veteran Historical
Society letterhead.
Note - Tri-Counties site is not part of nor officially associated with
