Coins. Yeah, I always carried one, sucked bad when you did not have one when in a bar was the coin challenge. Prob have 50 of them from over the years.
Never got one. Not a one. They don’t generally believe in that in this state for some reason. They don’t believe in awards either. I’ve been put in for awards on 7 different occasions over the last 18 years. Nada.
In April 2019, myself and another MP literally brought a 20 year old civilian back to life that was literally dead for 4 minutes, no pulse nothing. The provost Marshall put us both in for ARCOMs, state rejected saying it wasn’t worthy . So she resubmitted for just an AAM, same response. She then put us in for a BC’s coin, BC replied he didn’t have any to give and didn’t feel it was “above or beyond our duty to render aid as MPs”.
Now if youre in recruiting, they’ll give you a damn bronze star if you meet your quota..
