I retired from the U.S. Post Office a few years back. I cleaned out my closet soon afterwards and gave all of my Postal uniforms to the school to use in plays.
A friend retired last year and he supplied me with 2 new Postal shirts when I asked and promised to make him a pillow out of one. I was to keep the second shirt.
He also had an old shirt with the patch so I took it off and put it on his pillow. Since I didn't have a second patch I pinned a Postal pin on my pillow and when I find my old name tags I will also put a name tag on my pillow.
I just thought I would show and tell.
