AAFES recognizing America’s heroes with coins on Veterans Day

  • Published

In honor of Veterans Day, the Army & Air Force Exchange Service will be handing out free challenge coins to those who selflessly served the nation.

For the second year in a row, Exchange stores will distribute limited-edition challenge coins to veterans on Nov. 11.

“The Exchange is eternally grateful to the brave men and women who raised their right hands and took the oath to their country,” said Chief Master Sgt. Kevin Osby, the Army & Air Force Exchange Service’s senior enlisted adviser. “The Exchange is honored to do its part to recognize them on their special day with these unique coins.”

The coins, which feature an eagle on one side and emblems for all six military branches on the other, are available while supplies last. Veterans are encouraged to contact their local Exchange or visit the store’s Facebook page for more information. (Courtesy of AAFES)
