Hey guys. Remember Me? Post a military coin

I haven't been around much and there's a reason for that. I haven't been around much.

Right now I'm in Iraq!

Show us some military coinage!

    Sorry, trying to remember the details. I thought you were a contractor for the military stationed in Japan. How did you end up in Iraq?

    Sorry again, I don't have any military themed coins. image

    Wondered where or when you'd turn up.

    I don't have a coin to post but I'd like to compliment you on the Marine proof image.
    Excellent!
    I need one of those in my collection, for sure.

    Many thanks guys!

    I'm a civil servant who provides direct support to a Marine Unit who specializes in Aircraft Recovery Operations. When they go, we go.. Me and the guys I work with get the same pleasure. I won't make a full deployment and in fact am only working on a specific job right now. With a whole lot of luck I'll only be here a week or two.

    I'm plenty safe and the guys who deserve the kudos for service are all around me wearing uniforms. The guys I work with are some hard working Marines who you guys can be plenty proud of. Actually they're a little too hard working. We did about 16 hours of work yesterday. I'm beat! But I get to do it again today.
