I think it turned out rather well, and I hope the veteran who gets it likes it. Does anyone know if a vet gets to select his/her quilt or is that decision made by someone else?

It came out beautifully.
I am in a QOV group and generally, the vet does not get to choose their quilt. Sometimes, a member of the QOV group can pick one out for a particular vet (if they know one they want to give it to), but the recipient cannot choose. The quilts are made, labeled, and presented by the QOV group.

Beautiful. Also Thank you! Our local chapter selects the veterans who receive a quilt.But the quilts are handed out at random. But if there is a quilt with say , Snoopy in a airplane it will go to a Air Force vet.Thought will be give to things like that, or if there is a female vet and someone has made a quilt more suited for a lady.I have not ask my friends if you make a quilt and want a certain vet to receive it, if that request is honored. Hope this answered your question. But thank you again, and everyone else who take their time this for wonderful project.
