Challenge coins are traditionally given to individuals to signify membership in an organization or commemorate an outstanding achievement. While it is not uncommon for service members to receive more than one coin in their career, many only carry the one that is most important to them.
“My battalion sergeant major, Command Sgt. Maj. Eicher, he received an email asking to send a female, a senior NCO, to meet the Second Lady Karen Pence. I went to have a meeting with her along with officers and other NCOs across the post. The Second Lady, she was wondering about how we felt being females working in this great organization and our roles and what we do. And about our experiences. We shared our knowledge and stories about what we have done during our military careers.”
