Truman sailors to pitch in around town

NORFOLK, Va. (AP) - More than 1,000 sailors aboard the aircraft carrier USS Harry S. Truman will be working throughout Hampton Roads one day this week during a community service day.

The Truman sailors will join nine local organizations on Wednesday as they participate in projects to help clean up and beautify area attractions and other locations.

The sites include Norfolk Botanical Gardens, Nauticus, Portsmouth parks and recreation and city libraries in Norfolk.

The service day is just the first for the Truman sailors. Every month, one day will be set aside for community service.
