I had the privilege of presenting a QOV to Dale T, who served as a pilot in both
WWII and Korea.
We have known Dale for many years, and while I could write a
zillion stories about him and his service to our country, suffice to say: he is
truly a member of the "greatest generation."
The QOV given to him was made by an 11-year old 4-H member from Jefferson County, Nebraska. She used both patriotic and Nebraska (Husker) fabric in the quilt, so it was perfect to give to Dale who is both a native Nebraskan and a University of Nebraska alum.

And, little did we know when we selected the QOV for him, he also has family
from Jefferson County!
