JONESBORO, Ark. (KAIT) - The Jonesboro Elks Lodge hosted a Quilt of Valor Ceremony Saturday, honoring three Vietnam War veterans Wesley Williams, Robert Cobler, and William Richmond.
Quilts are given to comfort vets during difficult times. Sometimes, wounds aren’t always physical, and the quilts aim to heal emotional pain.
Williams spent two tours in Vietnam and said his quilt means the world to him.
