I recall seeing a link to a newspaper article on this board. My hard drive crashed and I lost the link and can't find it. The video showed wounded personnel at Ramstein and showed piles of quilts. Can anyone help?
Thank you.

I tried this link again and couldn't get the picture gallery to work. If you keep trying, you can see a photo of servicemen in bunks, each covered with a handmade colorful quilt.

Thanks for sharing that link. It brings tears to my eyes. My eldest daughter has served in both Afghanistan and Iraq. My son is Active Duty Navy and my husband served 20 years in the Navy. We have been so blessed to get buy without injury thus far.
I need to make some quilts for those soldiers!!!
