Air Force Awards

Hubby officially retired from the Air Force last month. So a week before his retirement day, his squadron gave him a little retirement/appreciation ceremony at Beale, AFB. Too bad my daughter and I weren' there to witness the event.
Here are some of his retirement awards.
940th Wing coin.
A bronze eagle. The eagle symbolizes the virtues of strength, courage, and character.
The Air Force Commendation medal.

This is my entry for this week's ABC Wednesday, letter A!
