<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>I've received some nice plaques that adorn my "I Love Me" room. Don't know if they still do it but from 10th Mountain I got an actual ice axe with unit crest and engraving on the handle.

<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>In the AF it is generally a plaque, nameplate, or something along those lines and a going away luncheon for the formal side. Depending on the individual, there might be a going away party after hours.

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.

<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>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. <br /><br />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.
