Eddie Stobart Names Lorry After Lee Rigby

Eddie Stobart has paid tribute to murdered British Army soldier Fusilier Lee Rigby, by naming a lorry after him.
 
It's the first time the UK haulage firm  has given one of its trucks a man's name. 
 
 
The special gesture was unveiled by Lee’s father, Phil McClure, who's been a driver at the company for seven years. 
 
He revealed that Lee had ambitions to become a trucker himself after leaving the Army - and said having his son’s name on the front of one of the lorries was a fitting memorial.
