I've designed several of these and these aren't all the coins I have but what is your personal favorite coin and do you still have it? I personally like the 3-7 Cav OIF belt buckle I designed. But I'm slightly bias.

I used to have a ton, but I donated most of my collection (30 or so) to the greeters in Bangor, Maine where they collect them.

Wow! These discussions really do have a way of coming back around, don't they? I think I have posted to two similar discussions already (and I haven't even been on RP six months yet).

Very strong, GySgt Wayne A. Ekblad, very strong. I like it even better, knowing it belongs to an airborne Marine!

My favorite is my first one from my first Army National Guard unit. That unit had roots all the way back to the Revolutionary War, and at that time, was called York Rifles. So that is what is on the coin, along with every type of unit it has been over the years from Infrantry to MP to Transportation to Engineers among others. It also has every War listed on the coin that the unit has been in. In this case, I am using the term unit to mean the physical location of the Armory since most of them had changed MOS qualifications over the years to stay at tha location.

I believe in started in the 80's. My 1st atta boy was cards. The brigade colonel's had 3 choices. One was bullet for musket, one was silver bullet for your musket and I forget the other. The sgt major had ones that said eagle feather for your war bonnet and such.

They are awarded by Commanders and Senior NCO's (1SGs and CSMs) for excellence. It is usually used when a AAM or Certificate of achievement is too high but you still want to recoinze or...with them.
