Well I finally got the flag back from Fort Knox that I planned to use in a shadow box for my grandfather's things. Here is the certificate that they sent accompanying the flag. Also, the CG and CSM threw in their coins.

Just got done looking at the document. I'd be darned proud. I know he is smiling down from heaven. Congrats on finally getting that flag too.
Can you explain the various coins?

Thank Capt Todd. When I started reading the section, I remembered long ago being told about Challenge Coins. Neat tradition!
 There's my coin, now someone buy me a drink!
