Happy Veterans Day! <\/p>\n\n\n\n


Today, we\u2019re honored to share one of the most meaningful framing projects we\u2019ve ever had the privilege of working on.
These dog tags belonged to two brothers, David S. Ortiz and Lu\u00eds R. Ortiz, who served in World War II. Tragically, only one brother made it home.<\/p>\n\n\n\n


For decades, the family had only the dog tags of the brother who survived. But recently, an incredible discovery brought a long-lost piece of their family history home.<\/p>\n\n\n\n


While metal detecting on Omaha Beach in Normandy, France, a British husband and wife discovered the fallen brother\u2019s dog tags buried in the sand. Determined to return them to their rightful owners, the couple went to extraordinary lengths to track down the family.<\/p>\n\n\n\n


82 years later, those dog tags finally made it home. <\/p>\n\n\n\n


We were deeply honored to help preserve this remarkable piece of history, bringing the brothers\u2019 dog tags together in a custom shadowbox featuring suede matting, decorative fillets, museum glass, custom nameplates, American flag pins, a New Mexico Zia sun pin, and a black wood frame.<\/p>\n\n\n\n


Some projects are about so much more than framing. They\u2019re about preserving history, honoring sacrifice, and keeping the stories of those who served alive for generations to come.<\/p>\n\n\n\n


On this Veterans Day, we extend our deepest gratitude to all who have served, especially those who made the ultimate sacrifice.
Their service will never be forgotten.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
