Description
The Expert Field Medical Badge (EFMB) is a prestigious special skill award in the United States Army. Established on June 18, 1965, it recognizes medical personnel for exceptional competence, physical stamina, and tactical proficiency in field medicine. Due to grueling testing standards, it typically features a very low pass rate, making it one of the most coveted badges for Army medics.
If you or someone you know can say that they were in harm’s way while saving the soldiers who were defending American freedom, this Expert Field Medical Badge challenge coin is the ideal coin to carry. The obverse displays the design of the Expert Field Medical Badge: an aid stretcher (symbolic of medical field service), a caduceus (the Medical Corps insignia of branch), and a Greek cross (suggesting the Geneva Convention). The whole represents the recipient’s skills and expertise.
The reverse features official U.S. Army emblem in detailed 3D.
Each coin measures 1 3/4 inch (44mm) in diameter.
