Piqua veterans and service members may apply, and individuals can apply on behalf of an eligible person, to have their photo, name and years of service on the banner. Applicants must be able to provide proof of military status and residency.
Once the city is done displaying the banners, they will be available for pick-up.
The city will be limiting the program to 75 applicants on a first-come, first served basis. The deadline to apply is April 15.
