High school student Cameron Blasek received a patriotic paint job free of charge for his pickup truck after East Central High School administrators in St. Leon, Indiana attempted to stop him from displaying the American flag earlier this month.
Blasek, 17, proudly displayed an American flag on his truck for most of his senior year, but Blasek said school administrators told him it broke school rules and needed to be removed.
Blasek, in an interview with Fox News Digital, said of his high school’s crackdown: “I was shocked. Didn’t really expect it.”
When Blasek refused to remove the flat from his truck, other students drove to school displaying American flags on their vehicles as well, in a show of support.
The school finally backed down and announced that flags were allowed to be displayed on vehicles after all.
Blasek’s story went viral, and a Cincinnati business, GCI Digital stepped up and gifted the patriotic student with a custom American flag wrap for his pickup, free of charge.
TJ Bedacht, owner of the local business, said, “We saw Cameron’s story and it resonated with us in a lot of ways. The truck was his grandfather’s and Cameron is a true American, interested in serving in the US Military.”
Below is a photo of Blasek’s transformed pickup truck, which he posted on his Facebook page Thursday:
Blasek wrote in another Facebook post:
“Huge shout out to Simple Solutions and Services Simple Solutions and Services for the body work. Amazing job!
