On a regular basis, Beantown Home Improvements offers significant discounts to America’s veterans, but owner Jim DelPrete always wants to do more, and since 2017 Operation Payback has helped us give back even more. It is our sincerest of hopes to make this an annual event of appreciation, and to do so we must not forget our partners.
Special thanks to DelPrete Disposal for working with Beantown Home Improvements to manage debris disposal for this event at zero cost!
Meet This Year’s Operation Payack Winner!
We are excited to announce the winner of Operation Payback 2023. This October 31st, we randomly selected our annual Operation Payback roof giveaway winner. The lucky Veteran is Rich Turner of Middleboro.
Rich proudly served with the U.S. Navy from 1986 – 1992 as SONAR TECH 2nd Class E5. He was stationed in San Diego and Newport on the USS Trippe FF 1075. He was also stationed in the Caribbean assisting law enforcement with inspecting suspected vessels for contraband.
SONAR Technicians are responsible for operating SONAR systems, underwater fire control systems, and supporting equipment on surface ships such as destroyers and cruisers. Also responsible for undersea surveillance, and aid in safe navigation and search-and-rescue operations.
The Navy must have been in his blood as both his parents served. His father was a Master Chief in WW2 and his mother was a Yeoman.
We thank you and your family for your sacrifice and dedication to our great country.
Rich Turner joins the elite roster of Operation Payback recipients such as Joe Minoie, Fred Reed, Joseph Busa, Eric Dutkiewicz, Chris Schwalm, and Jon Palomino. We thank each and every one of them for their service to our country.
