Hill County Veterans Service Officer Brad Orban isn’t racking up miles on his own truck anymore as he heads out to help the county’s veterans, thanks to Hill County Sheriff Rodney Watson, who’s known Orban for more than 20 years.

"Brad was using his own vehicle to go out and work with the veterans," Watson said.

So when Watson saw an opportunity to help, he didn’t hesitate.

"Knowing Brad's work ethic we were very excited to be able to help him because he does a lot of work for veterans locally in the county," says Watson.

After finding the most mechanically sound out-of-commission car the sheriff’s office had, Watson sought and received unanimous approval from county commissioners to transfer the vehicle to the Veteran's Service Office.

With a new paint job, some signage, WiFi inside, and a printer, Orban says the new wheels will help him provide the help the veterans he serves need.
