Thanks for the update Seth. Just got mine in the mail today along with the congrats set. Also surprised it took this long.

That is a bit surprising given its low mintage of 10,000 – a sign of these economic times maybe.

I was once confused of being our brigade’s Command Sergeant Major. A confusion which ought not to have been made. Imagine if someone called out my last name to him? Not a pretty sight. We may have looked a like, we certainly didn’t have the same demeanor.

So true…even the coin/medal dealers didn’t buy these all up…and that really tells you the whole story.

Not even 10,000 collectors wanted one??

Just an example of a medal that people would buy without consideration of the metal value.

I am surprised these army medals are still available. If I was a CO of a base, I would buy a bunch to give out similar to a challenge coin to my best performers.
