Craig- They look great! Can't wait to get the USS Kearsarge Coin- ordered it today. It will be part of my son's Christmas this year. Where can I get the story that goes with the coin? Looking forward to reading about the ship's history. Thanks for all the work you put into these coins!

So, the Kearsarge will be written, I just don't know when. I still need the USS Shields, USS Hopper, and the USS Burke done 1st.... but I will have a story written. I want the deppers/sailors to understand the meaning of their ship.

All - Hey guys wanted to let you know some interesting news. The company I have been designing the Navy boot camp challenge coins for has ask that I become a partner.
Now that I have only one challenge coin to complete, Ship-2, and after much consideration, I have decided to become part of their company. Now that I'm almost done, I can spend more time here. I really miss the old days talking to you guys.... Woo-hoo.... Go Navy!!!

Hello Craig:
Do you know if there will ever be a coin for the USS Marvin Shields. It was Ship 13 when our gandson was in BC. It's great news that you will be able to spend more time at the site. Your words of wisdom are greatly appreciated.

Hey Connie,
I have completed the Marvin Shields. It is now out for minting. It should be ready in about 2 weeks. Just keep checking ebay at this link: http://www.ebay.com/sch/pirgifts/m.html
