4STARCHRIS Posted April 16, 2012 Share #1 Posted April 16, 2012 I had the great honor of once again participating in this years Medal of Honor -Host city event this past weekend. Between the Tornado of Oklahoma City and the Snow coming back home the weather was great in Gainesville, Texas. I am not sure if this is the proper place to post this so if Moderator's need to move it feel free. It encompasses, their medals, ribbons, bust of etc. 4starchris Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

4STARCHRIS Posted April 16, 2012 Author Share #4 Posted April 16, 2012 The Medal of Honor quilt at the silent auction was quite impressive. I so not think I have ever seen anything like it. This is the USAF MoH signed by Col Day. 4starchris Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
