On August 31, 1949, Secretary of Defense Louis Johnson announced the creation of an Armed Forces Day to replace separate Army, Navy, Marine Corps and Air Force Days. The single-day celebration stemmed from the unification of the Armed Forces under one department -- the Department of Defense. ~ The Department of Defense
Beloved works with many units from many of our Armed Forces and in some case with many other Nations. I wanted to say a quiet but public "Thank You!"
* A very carefully selected picture of some of Beloved's Military Coins. (aka: Unit Coins, Commandor coins, Pride coins, Honor Coins) "There is a proud heritage when it comes to these coins that has its roots as far back as the Roman Empire where they were given to reward achievement; much the same as today. No matter what name is associated with these coins, the meaning is the same. To reward, recognize and award a person for dedication, bravery, and team work.
Awesome!! So proud of our hero and you - a brave military wife.
