DAV Chapter 47 Big Spring

🇺🇸 Honoring Service, One Stitch at a Time 🇺🇸

Members of the O’Neal Kunkle DAV Chapter 47 recently had the privilege of presenting a Quilt of Valor to Vietnam Veteran Hugh Schafer in recognition of his honorable service in the United States Army.

The Quilts of Valor Foundation mission is simple yet powerful: to cover service members and Veterans touched by war with comforting and healing Quilts of Valor. Each quilt represents gratitude from a grateful nation and serves as a lasting reminder that their service and sacrifice are never forgotten.

Mr. Schafer’s dedication and service during the Vietnam era reflect the courage and commitment demonstrated by so many who answered the call. DAV Chapter 47 members were proud to recognize him and thank him personally for his service to our country.

Please join us in congratulating and thanking Hugh Schafer for his service and sacrifice.

🇺🇸 Welcome home, and thank you for your service. 🇺🇸

A heartfelt thank you to Forsan ISD for their incredible support of our Veterans! 🇺🇸

In addition to the fundraiser, Veterans were honored by having their names proudly displayed throughout the junior high and high school hallways. A beautiful Field of Flags was also arranged to recognize and pay tribute to all who have served our country.

We are truly grateful for this meaningful show of patriotism and community support for our Veterans. 🙏🇺🇸
