Talented artist -- rarely do you see such fine workmanship in chainsaw carving. The eagle's feathers are so thin the breeze actually moves them slightly. As a family of retired military and a gold star child I was very touched by this display.

Chainsaw sculptor Clayton Coss turned a damaged tree into a work of art. The back side of the tree has two children playing, an American flag, and an eagle. The front side of the tree has a soldier holding a gun, each medal of honor that can be awarded, a folded flag given to a deceased soldier's family, and a fallen soldier's gun and helmet.
[DenverAnn, 09/05/2013]The 21-foot-tall trunk was all that remained of an oak tree killed in a 2007 ice storm. Coss carved the sculpture in October 2009.
