The PAA has a long tradition of supporting and honoring our Veterans. Veterans who have served for the United States and Greek military including the Battle of Crete.  To honor this long-standing tradition and to recognize our Veterans appropriately, we have developed the form below that all of our PAA members should fill out for themselves and for those who are no longer with us, the brave men and women who served.

The Challenge Coin is a small coin bearing the insignia or emblem of a military unit, organization, or specific event, that is carried by the unit's members. It's used to authenticate membership and boost morale by recognizing accomplishments, promoting esprit de corps, and serving as a memento of military service. PAA presented a commemorative Challenge Coin during the 49th PAA National Convention to members who have served in the military.
