The Martin family’s dedication to military service spans generations. Alongside Bill and John, they honor the legacy of their late brother, Eddie Martin, an Air Force veteran who served in Vietnam, and their late brother-in-law, Gerry Doty, who served and died as a Marine in the Korean War. Continuing this legacy, Bill’s son, Andrew Martin, proudly served in the Marine Corps. This generational commitment reflects Metro Express Car Wash’s core values of service, respect, and community support for veterans and first responders.
“We are proud to stand with Idaho’s veteran community,” said Bill Martin. “The Idaho Veterans Parade and our Veterans Day event are ways we can honor the sacrifices of Idaho veterans and show our appreciation for their service.”
