This is a memorial box I had the honor of making for a friend's memorial service tomorrow. He was a medic attached to the Marines during the landing at Iwo Jima and then again at Okinawa where he got severely wounded. He was a true hero!
Thanks to Michael T for the great pattern that I modified slightly.

Thanks for all the kind coments, the family liked it. Mike, I just used glue for the sides. I had thought of using biscuits but I was running out of time and I did not want to take the chance of messing it up.
