FORT WAYNE, Ind. (WOWO): Fort Wayne is adding more banners to its Blue Star Banner display on West Jefferson Boulevard.
The City started the program in 2014, as a way to honor residents or city employees who were actively deployed with the military.
Since that time, 39 banners – each representing a service member, have been hung. Ten have been been placed in 2015.
