SUMNER — Robert Perry presented David E. Tribou with the Eagle Head Cane during worship at the Congregational Church of East Sumner on Nov. 11.

Tribou, Metalsmith 2nd Class U.S. Navy, is a Korean War veteran. He served from 1948 to 1952 at the Submarine Base New London, Conn., and spent two years on the U.S.S. Tarawa aircraft carrier in the Pacific doing damage control.

The Eagle Head Cane was carved by Bob and his brothers Luther and Charles Perry, who are all members of Streaked Mountain Carvers Club, a chapter of Maine Wood Carvers Association.

The brothers work together as a team creating the canes in conjunction with the Eagle Head Cane Project for Veterans through the Maine Wood Carvers Association.

Bob carves the eagle head. Charles carves insignias, medal awards and the names of the veterans after Luther turns the hardwood cane shaft. All three brothers are military veterans.
