ONe of my areas of collecting is the medal of govenrment organizations that I have or do work with. One such organization was the US Border Patrol.
I just acquired this latest medal set (minus the case, which I added). I think this is the last obsolete medal set from the Border Patrol (before they became part of the Dept of Homeland Security) that I don't have (until now).
This is the Commissioner's Distinguished Career Service Award. The set includes the large medal, the miniature medal, and the service ribbon. No lapel pin was authorized for this decoration.
OK, now ya'll can tell me if this is outside of "acceptable" topics.
And yes, I have more "surprises" on the way. Stay tuned.
