Storey County Shines a Green Light for Veterans

Storey County is lighting the way to show appreciation for those who have served our country, joining a nationwide effort to honor veterans through Operation Green Light for Veterans, Nov. 4–11, 2026.

The Storey County Commissioners passed a proclamation during their meeting Tuesday, Nov. 3, recognizing the initiative organized by the National Association of Counties (NACo) and the National Association of County Veterans Service Officers (NACVSO).

The campaign encourages counties, parishes and boroughs across the nation to illuminate government buildings and residences with green lights as a visible show of support for veterans. The proclamation recognizes the sacrifices of military personnel and encourages the community to show its appreciation by displaying a green light in a window of their home or business from Nov. 4–11.

Whether it's a green porch light, a window display or an illuminated business, the simple gesture offers an opportunity for the Comstock community to come together and let local veterans know their service and sacrifices have not been forgotten.
