Is anyone familiar with this? What are these given for?

My wife and were both coined by MajGen Huser last night after pouring our wine for their senior leaders conference. 20AF commands the USAF Minuteman III ICBM force.

2006 - 2012. 11B 1-325 then Ranger medic 1st Bat.

Received it during a tour I helped organize back in the late 2010s. Glad those crews are alright

Got these from Stratcom today. I'm loving it.

Nypd hat badge will trade for a federal coin.

Purchased this from the EA-18G demo team at the 2025 Jones Beach Airshow. Bummed to hear about the crash, glad they all got out.

Was able to snag the baby yesterday!

I got to go to the private White House tour for law enforcement and it was genuinely one of the coolest experiences I’ve ever had. The Secret Service was great to us and did a lot of stuff they don’t normally do on the normal tours. They had tons of static displays of USSS gear, weapons and vehicles we could take photos with, including the Beast. (The presidential limo) I traded patches with one of the guys that drives the Beast.

My coolest score was doing a hand to hand trade with the Chief of the Secret Service Uniformed Division right in front of the White House! Incredibly nice guy and he presented the coin the old school way with the handshake method. I’m a young guy new to LE and this was my first Police Week. This whole White House visit was an absolutely unforgettable experience that made the week extra special.

Good week of trading in Washington DC police week. All shown are traded with my agency coins. Few not included such at dupes and ones traded for friends.

My serialized #8 gold coin from the Joint Communications Support Element Veterans Association. The JCSEVA was started as a 10-year reunion since Desert Shield/Storm. It blew up from there to become a 501c3 non-profit linked directly to the active unit and has a scholarship program for children of the unit members. This coin never leaves its case so it is in pristine condition. It is engraved with my name on the front.

Wasn't sure what they were until I looked.

Neither one of these is what I'd call "fancy". They are from the late 80s and early 90s. I should probably clean them up. I was issued these at each unit.
