Default Lest we forget carving

Here's the photos I said I would post from an earlier post, after the Soldier got painted and after the unveiling during Remembrance Day ceremonies.

The first one shows three views after painting, the rest is at the service with the six remaining vets at our Legion unveiling the Carving. As the photos show there were many sacrifices in our small town by the number of wreaths laid.

Your talent is remarkable, given the fact that today is Veterens day in the U.S. and Rememberance day in Canada, I would like to take this opportunity to thank you for giving of yourself to honor those who have fought to preserve freedom.
