Just in time for the July 4th parade! This is an elderly Vietnam Veteran, holding his flag at the parade. He is also a member of the American Legion. The carving is just under 7 inches tall, not counting the flag, and carved from basswood. Claude -- https://www.etsy.com/shop/ClaudesWoodcarving | |||||||

Wonderfully rendered, Claude. You captured the old vet perfectly.
