Melita has created bookends by combining two charts from Jean Hilton and Pat Mazu. Very clever!

Ridgewood shows off two collages--one for police and one for fire fighters.  Here in a very rural area we celebrate the volunteer rescue squad but these are perfect for more urban areas.  Sorry, I don't know the designer.
