thanks Lucy in the Sky.......
My son was in the Navy as I mentioned before......and my dad was a career man in the Army.......Son was named for my dad and always wondered if he (dad) would have felt bad that son joined the Navy.......he definitely would not have cared.....a service man is a service man/woman and they are all servicing us.
I think that when I do get around to this quilt, I may just include both and then just might also include something from the Air Force...since hubby served with them...
Thanks for the OK to copy your ideas.....MaryJane
