On Memorial Day, 1998, a group called Vietnam Veterans Wives laid out a beautiful Quilt near the Reflecting Pool, near the Vietnam Veterans Memorial in Washington, D. C. This Quilt raises the publics' awareness of Vietnam and Gulf War veterans' health problems. These folks need more "Blocks" so that they can "cover both sides of the Reflecting Pool next year." I for one would like to see it next year.

Blocks need to be 20" square (Orange Material
for Vietnam and Brown Material for Gulf War) Anything can be put on the blocks. Some are
putting crosses, praying hands, flags, veterans' name & where he served, medals,
hearts, airplanes, etc. and can be hand sewn or machine done. Send blocks to: Shelia Winsett, 810 20th Ave., East, Jasper, AL 35501 Phone (205) 221-5658 after 7PM central.
