When I place the water mark in one section then go to another where I add the

Word is only allowing me to display the watermark in one section at a time.
The header/footer sections are purposely not linked.
Although you don't say, I'll guess you're using the watermark gallery
in Word 2007. It behaves that way (which I consider a bug) --
inserting a new watermark first deletes any existing watermark; the
deletion takes out all watermarks in the document, while the insertion
only affects the current section.
The solution is to avoid the gallery for inserting watermarks in the
second and later sections. Open the header pane of the first section,
select and copy the watermark (which is just a WordArt object anchored
in the header), go to the next section's header and paste, and repeat
the paste for the other sections.
