Beautiful work - very original.

Not sure you want to comment publicly, but I have 5 relatives I would like to similarly honor:

My Dad was a Greatest Generation US Army WW-II veteran - one of the 3rd wave at Normandy - died in 2009.

My FIL was a Greatest Generation US Army WW-II veteran - fought in a tank in the Battle of the Bulge - died in 2001.

My brother was a USAF Vietnam veteran in the late 1960s - died in 2019.

My other brother is a US Army Vietnam veteran - 2 tours in the 1960s - Green Beret - 2 Purple Hearts - 2 Bronze Stars - 1 Silver Star - still alive but in poor health.

My nephew was a US Army Afghanistan veteran - KIA 2009 at the age of 19.

Roughly, what would it cost to have all 5 similarly honored?

Hey email me. Lewdawgtd@gmail.com

Those generations are my jam. They deserve any and everything. I made a plaque for a WWII vet recently and the guy that requested it posts here and he loved it. That was also black walnut and maple.

Thanks for sharing the shop name.

Someone mentiomed an LSU plaque — you make things other than military?

I’ll believe it when I see it! Would love to get that monkey off our back. The defense ain’t no joke though.
