A photo of the "heads" side of the Congressional Gold Medal presented to USASOC on August 16, 2019, at Fort Bragg, North Carolina. The coin depicts three figures -- a woman, a paratrooper, and a man in a suit -- representing the broad range of work undertaken by the OSS. Each of the figures is shown devoid of detail, highlighting the way OSS agents carried out their duties. The award was presented to USASOC for its historic contributions to the OSS. Some members of the OSS would go on to be influential figures in the Special Operations Forces (SOF) community, becoming what is now known as Special Forces, Psychological Operations, and Civil Affairs.
