In it I found a letter, an army lapel pin, and this certificate:
No request for money, just a "thanks for your service". It's absolutely unnecessary--I was proud to play my part--but I'm happy to receive it nonetheless.
Update, 10/10/08: I discussed this certificate on an email list of which I am a member, and received a reply stating that active service members nominate friends and/or family to receive this award.
The lapel pin has found a permanent home on the lanyard holding my school ID card.

It's nice to receive a "thank you" for your service. Thanks for your service.
And thank you for yours.
An appropriate acknowledgement for every member of the Army / Guard / Reserve, past and present.
