| Lt Col Eichelberger, the current AIA commander at Kadena, has produced
the GREAT coin in commemoration of the 6916th's tenure at Athens from 1
July 1973 to Oct 1990............ He sez:
As you know, many military organizations have
created commemorative coins for their personnel to keep as a remembrance
of their service with a particular unit; or to be used to commemorate a
significant event. Knowing that this year marks the 10th anniversary
of the closure of the 16th, I thought this would be a good occasion to
create a 6916th ESS coin. The attached file shows the front
and back of said coin. I wanted to pass this note to you to see if
others might be interested. I've already paid for the minting costs,
and figure $5.00 is a fair price that will cover the cost of the coin and
all mailing costs. I hope this proves to be a unique momento which
former Athenians would want to add to their collection.
