When I retire I will have a Shadow Box made of my military achievements/recognition/awards. These shadow boxes are normally 3x2 feet or so. I would hope a family member keeps it somewhere as to preserve a bit of my family history.
In 2004 I was recognized as the Field Grade Officer for the entire state of California. There was an Oscar sized statue that came with that . . . maybe I’ll see if my base’s museum would be interested in that.
