Description: This USAF 965th Airborne Air Control Squadron 2-side challenge coin measures 1.7" in diameter, good condition. Please view photos for details. Besides using these military coins for challenging, they are also used as rewards or awards for outstanding service or performance of duty. As such they are used as a tool to build morale. In the context as they are used by the modern U.S. military, the tradition probably began among special forces units during the Vietnam War. The tradition spread through the Airborne community, and by the early 1980s also into the 75th Ranger Regiment. As officers were reassigned as their careers progressed, they carried with them the tradition of awarding a unit coin for acts that were worthy of recognition, but yet lacked enough merit to submit the soldiers act for an official medal. A valuable addition to your collection of military memorabilia items. I ship worldwide. Combined shipment is welcome to save you money.
