I was presented with the American flag from Jerry’s service at the National Cemetery. I asked my good friend Tony to engrave the flag case for me with his awesome laser engraving machine. Jerry’s military rank was AWS, which stands for “Aviation Anti Submarine Warfare Operator Chief Petty Officer”; I was so thankful for the abbreviation! Tony and our friend Roy (both US. Army veterans) came to my home and refolded the flag to fit in the case. I am so grateful for these good men, they loved Jerry like a brother.
How beautiful and what a wonderful way to display the flag. I often wondered what people did with the flag after it was presented to them. You must be so proud of Jerry. ❤️
I have see military funerals in the USA & always loved the idea of folding the flag & presenting to the family, what a moving moment that must be. I love your flag case & it sits so nicely on your mantelpiece. A beautiful & thoughtful idea. You can hold your lovely Jerry in your heart everytime you see it.
