A Belated Major Award

While I was at work yesterday I received a phone call from D. Vandevelde and he told me that he had an award for me.  I was somewhat surprised to hear that he would have something for me.  I was even more surprised when I went to the lobby of building 7601 to meet him and get the award.

 

He handed me a folder and a little  case.  He told me, "This is a little old, but L. Edinburg wants you to have it.

 I opened the folder to find inside, not one, but two certificates with Tribute to Excellence awards.  One award from the Waco site, ....

 ... and one award from the L-3 IS group.  Too bad this was almost three years after the fact.  I wonder what could have happened to shake this out of the cobwebs at work.

 The coin is interesting.  

I would like to have been recognized back when this was awarded.

YAMA (yet another major award)

Jeanette and I went to one of the downtown schools for National Engineering Week. My employer provided us with a small token of their appreciation for our participation. Here Jeanette is showing her new windbreaker. I have one similar.



An mow for the award.

The Award

Another Almost Major Award, and ANOTHER

Major Scouting Award

I had something to put in my treasure drawer today and noticed this major award that I had not boasted about receiving. So here is my "ON MY HONOR" award presented to adults for contribution to scouting by The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints.
