Kodi Ma Coins a Challenge Amawoneka Motani?

Kawirikawiri, ndalama zachitsulo zimakhala zozungulira 1.5 mpaka 2 mainchesi m'mimba mwake, ndipo pafupifupi 1/10-inch wandiweyani, koma masitayilo ndi makulidwe ake amasiyana mosiyanasiyana-ena amabwera m'mawonekedwe achilendo monga zishango, ma pentagon, mitu ya mivi, ndi ma tag a galu. Ndalamazi nthawi zambiri zimapangidwa ndi pewter, mkuwa, kapena faifi tambala, zomwe zimakhala ndi zomaliza zosiyanasiyana (ndalama zina zongopeka zimakutidwa ndi golide). Mapangidwewo amatha kukhala osavuta - chojambula pagulu ndi mawu ake - kapena kukhala ndi zowoneka bwino za enamel, mapangidwe amitundu yambiri, ndi masiketi.

Challenge Coin Origins

Ndikosatheka kudziwa chifukwa chake komanso komwe mwambo wa ndalama zachitsulo unayambira. Chinthu chimodzi ndi chotsimikizika: Ndalama zachitsulo ndi usilikali zimabwerera kutali kwambiri kuposa zaka zathu zamakono.

Chimodzi mwa zitsanzo zakale kwambiri zodziwika bwino za msilikali wolembedwa kupatsidwa mphoto chifukwa cha kulimba mtima chinachitika ku Roma Yakale. Ngati msilikali anachita bwino pankhondo tsiku limenelo, ankalandira malipiro ake a tsiku limodzi, ndi ndalama ina monga bonasi. Nkhani zina zimati ndalamazo zinapangidwa mwapadera ndi chizindikiro cha gulu lankhondo limene linachokera, zomwe zinachititsa amuna ena kugwiritsira ntchito ndalama zawo monga chikumbutso, m’malo mozigwiritsa ntchito pa akazi ndi vinyo.

Masiku ano, kugwiritsa ntchito ndalama zamagulu ankhondo ndikovuta kwambiri. Ngakhale kuti ndalama zambiri zimaperekedwabe ngati zizindikiro zoyamikira ntchito yabwino, makamaka kwa iwo omwe amagwira ntchito ya usilikali, oyang'anira ena amawasinthanitsa pafupifupi ngati makhadi a bizinesi kapena autographs omwe angathe kuwonjezera pagulu. Palinso ndalama zachitsulo zomwe msilikali angagwiritse ntchito ngati baji ya ID kutsimikizira kuti adatumikira ndi gulu linalake. Ndalama zinanso zimaperekedwa kwa anthu wamba kuti zidziwike, kapenanso kugulitsidwa ngati chida chopezera ndalama.

Ndalama Yoyamba Yovomerezeka Yotsutsa…Mwinamwake

Ngakhale kuti palibe amene akudziwa kuti ndalama zachitsulo zinali zotani, nkhani ina inayamba m’nthawi ya nkhondo yoyamba ya padziko lonse, pamene msilikali wina wolemera analandira mamendulo amkuwa ndi zilembo za gulu louluka kuti apereke kwa asilikali ake. Posakhalitsa, m'modzi mwa ace owuluka adawomberedwa ku Germany ndikugwidwa. Ajeremani anatenga chilichonse pa munthu wake kupatula kathumba kakang'ono kachikopa komwe ankavala pakhosi pake komwe kunali ndi medali.

Woyendetsa ndegeyo anathawa ndipo anapita ku France. Koma a ku France adakhulupirira kuti anali kazitape, ndipo adamulamula kuti aphedwe. Pofuna kutsimikizira kuti iye ndi ndani, woyendetsa ndegeyo anapereka mendulo. Msilikali wa ku France adazindikira chizindikirocho ndipo kuphedwa kunachedwa. A French adatsimikizira kuti ndi ndani ndipo adamubwezera ku gulu lake.

Imodzi mwa ndalama zoyamba zovuta kwambiri idapangidwa ndi Colonel "Buffalo Bill" Quinn, Gulu la 17th Infantry Regiment, yemwe adawapangira amuna ake pankhondo yaku Korea. Ndalamayi imakhala ndi njati mbali imodzi monga kugwedeza mutu kwa mlengi wake, ndi chizindikiro cha Regiment mbali inayo. Anabowola bowo pamwamba kuti amunawo avale m’khosi mwawo, m’malo mwa thumba lachikopa.

Chovuta

Nkhani zimanena kuti vuto linayamba ku Germany pambuyo pa nkhondo yachiwiri ya padziko lonse. Anthu aku America omwe adakhala kumeneko adatengera chikhalidwe chakumaloko chochita "macheke a pfennig." Pfennig inali gulu lotsika kwambiri la ndalama ku Germany, ndipo ngati mulibe imodzi itayitanidwa cheke, mumangogula moŵa. Izi zidasintha kuchokera ku pfenning kupita ku medali ya unit, ndipo mamembala "amatsutsa" wina ndi mnzake pomenya medali pa bar. Ngati membala aliyense amene analipo analibe medali yake, ankayenera kugula chakumwa kwa wotsutsayo ndi wina aliyense amene anali ndi ndalama yake. Ngati mamembala ena onse anali ndi ma medallions, wotsutsa adayenera kugula zakumwa zonse.

Kugwirana Chanza Kwachinsinsi

Mu June 2011, Secretary of Defense Robert Gates adayendera malo ankhondo ku Afghanistan asanapume pantchito. Ali m’njira, anagwirana chanza ndi amuna ndi akazi ambirimbiri m’gulu lankhondo zimene, m’maso, zinkaoneka ngati kusinthanitsa ulemu. Kunena zoona, kunali kugwirana chanza mwachinsinsi ndi chodabwitsa mkati mwa wolandirayo—ndalama yapadera ya Secretary of Defense Challenge.

Osati ndalama zonse zotsutsa zomwe zimaperekedwa ndi kugwirana chanza mwachinsinsi, koma wakhala mwambo umene ambiri amatsatira. Ikhoza kukhala ndi chiyambi chake mu Nkhondo Yachiwiri ya Boer, yomwe inamenyedwa pakati pa atsamunda aku Britain ndi South Africa kumayambiriro kwa zaka za zana la 20. A British adalemba ganyu asilikali ambiri amwayi pa nkhondoyi, omwe, chifukwa cha udindo wawo wa mercenary, sanathe kupeza mendulo zamphamvu. Komabe, sizinali zachilendo kuti mkulu wa asilikaliwo alandire malo ogonawo. Nkhani zimanena kuti maofesala omwe sanatumizidwe nthawi zambiri amalowa m'chihema cha msilikali yemwe wapatsidwa mphoto mopanda chilungamo ndikudula menduloyo pa riboni. Kenako, pamwambo wapagulu, iwo ankayitana wankhondo woyenerera wopita patsogolo ndipo, popereka menduloyo m’manja, kugwirana chanza, kuipereka kwa msilikaliyo monga njira yomuthokoza mosapita m’mbali chifukwa cha utumiki wake.

Ndalama Zankhondo Zapadera

Ndalama zachitsulo zidayamba kugwira ntchito pankhondo yaku Vietnam. Ndalama zoyamba za nthawi ino zidapangidwa ndi Gulu Lankhondo la 10 kapena 11 la Gulu Lankhondo Lapadera ndipo zinali zochepa kuposa ndalama wamba zomwe zidasindikizidwa mbali imodzi, koma amuna omwe anali nawo adanyadira.

Chofunika kwambiri, komabe, chinali chotetezeka kwambiri kuposa njira ina - magulu a zipolopolo, omwe mamembala ake ankanyamula chipolopolo chimodzi chosagwiritsidwa ntchito nthawi zonse. Zambiri mwa zipolopolozi zinaperekedwa ngati mphotho ya kupulumuka ntchito, ndi lingaliro lakuti tsopano inali "chipolopolo chomaliza," chomwe chiyenera kugwiritsidwa ntchito pa inu nokha m'malo modzipereka ngati kugonjetsedwa kukuwoneka kuti kuli pafupi. Zoonadi kunyamula chipolopolo kunali kungosonyeza machismo, chotero chimene chinayamba kukhala mfuti yamanja kapena zipolopolo za M16, posakhalitsa chinakula kufika ku zipolopolo zamtundu wa .50, zipolopolo zolimbana ndi ndege, ndipo ngakhale zipolopolo za mfuti m’kuyesayesa kugwirizana.

Tsoka ilo, pamene mamembala a kalabu ya bullet awa adapereka "Chovuta" kwa wina ndi mnzake m'mabala, zikutanthauza kuti anali kuponya zipolopolo zamoyo patebulo. Pokhala ndi nkhawa kuti ngozi yakupha ingachitike, lamulo lidaletsa lamuloli, ndikuyikamo ndalama zochepa za Special Forces m'malo mwake. Posakhalitsa pafupifupi gawo lililonse linali ndi ndalama zawo, ndipo ena adapanga ndalama zachikumbutso zankhondo zomwe zidamenyedwa movutikira kuti apereke kwa omwe adakhalapo kuti anene nkhaniyi.

Purezidenti (ndi Wachiwiri kwa Purezidenti) Challenge Coins

Kuyambira ndi Bill Clinton, pulezidenti aliyense wakhala ndi zovuta zake coinand, popeza Dick Cheney, wachiwiri kwa purezidenti wakhala nawo.

Nthawi zambiri pamakhala ndalama zingapo za Purezidenti - imodzi yotsegulira, yomwe imakumbukira utsogoleri wake, ndi imodzi yomwe imapezeka kwa anthu wamba, nthawi zambiri m'masitolo ogulitsa mphatso kapena pa intaneti. Koma pali ndalama imodzi yapadera, yovomerezeka ya pulezidenti yomwe ingalandilidwe pogwirana chanza ndi munthu wamphamvu kwambiri padziko lapansi. Monga momwe mungaganizire, iyi ndiye ndalama zosowa komanso zofunidwa kwambiri pazovuta zonse.

Purezidenti amatha kupereka ndalama mwakufuna kwake, koma nthawi zambiri zimasungidwa pamisonkhano yapadera, asitikali, kapena olemekezeka akunja. Akuti George W.
