Default A quilt of valor

Presented to Galen Courtright on Veteran's Day, he is a veteran of the army and served in the Korean war, his father, also an army veteran, served in WWII and his grandson, a marine, served in Iraq.

The idea to use the pillow panels came from misoop.

His great grand daughter wanted to put it on his bed right away.
