Phoenix Military Challenge Coins
Challenge coins are one of the oldest military traditions in the U.S. and military challenge coins can be found in the pockets of soldiers in every branch of the nation’s military. This includes the servicemembers stationed at Barry M Goldwater Range Air Force Base in Phoenix, an air base providing open practice grounds for live fire training and bombing exercises to Airmen in the U.S. Air Force and Marines in the U.S. Navy.
Military challenge coins depicting a military organization’s insignia, emblems, or other major symbols are used in the military to build team unity and camaraderie between units of servicemembers. Officers, for example, gift out uniquely commissioned “Commander Coins” representing their personal regard for soldiers who perform exceptionally under their leadership. “Unit Coins” may also be commissioned and given out to every member serving together in a unit to represent team bonds and group unity. Unit coins tend to incorporate specific slogans, mascots, or significant elements of a soldier’s service. For example, servicemembers at Barry M Goldwater Range Air Force Base might incorporate a backdrop of the Gila Bend Auxiliary Air Force Field or a depiction of a team’s favored aircraft.
Other local military organizations located in Phoenix include:
