    Yes, this was posted a few days ago on this site. I hope thru QOV organization he is able to track down the quilter. I just put my first name on the quilts that I made and so did my girlfriend who made over 100 quilts for QOV.

    Yes the same thing happened in Australia to our Vietnam Vets, they were told when the arrived back in Sydney to tell people that they had been interstate - disgraceful
