CHARLESTON, W.Va. (AP) – West Virginia service members and first responders will be honored later this year by Gov. Earl Ray Tomblin and first lady Joanne Jaeger Tomblin.
 
     They are asking state residents to submit photos of service members and first responders for recognition trees that will be displayed in the governor’s reception room during the holiday season.
 
     Tomblin says the display is intended to showcase West Virginians who serve the nation and their communities.
 
     Submitted photos must be received by Nov. 14. They should be mailed to the West Virginia Governor’s Mansion, attention Tina Amburgey. The address is 1716 Kanawha Blvd. East, Charleston, W.Va. 25305.
 
     Photos will not be returned, so photo copies should be submitted.
