I am Josh, a US Army combat veteran who proudly served my country with the 10th Mountain Division. After I was injured by an IED while on foot patrol in Afghanistan, I recovered at Walter Reed and then medically retired from the Army...

Thank you to NBC Washington for this amazing feature. And to Capital Arts & Crafts Festival for the opportunity!

"Putting his dedication and creativity into beautiful custom pieces is such a great example of the talent and unique perspectives our artists share."

"I found that working with my hands and creating beauty from simple, raw materials gives me a sense of accomplishment that is truly the best form of therapy. My love for the military and our country flows directly into every custom flag and sign I create"

"I WAS AMAZED AT HOW BEAUTIFUL MY FLAG WAS WHEN I RECEIVED IT. JOSH IS TRULY GIFTED, AND I HIGHLY RECOMMEND HIS PRODUCT. HE IS ALSO A WONDERFUL PERSON, COMMITTED TO SERVING HIS FAMILY, COMMUNITY, AND COUNTRY." -MELISSA A.
