Gifts for those PCS'ing

Most common I think is a plaque. I got these from Infantry units that I was with in Germany. The two smaller ones are miniature replicas of the unit colors with my rank and crossed rifles and the little plate in the middle with my name and years with that unit. The bigger one is form when I was a 1SG in an Infantry BN in Germany. It is a full size replica of the company guidon, crossed rifles to the side, two of our company coins one front side and one back side, my commanders rank as well as a 1SG rank with the bottom rocker cut off as I was a SFC at the time I was a 1SG there.

Cash is always nice!

At one unit in Germany, they gave out a German license plate with the Soldier's name on it. I thought that was a neat farewell gift.

At my last unit (as a DA civilian), everyone received a glass mug, engraved with dates of service and the unit motto/name. I like the glass mug idea as well.
