Black History Month We Salute General William E. Kip Ward, U.s. Commander, United States Africa Command
During Black History Month we salute all of our military men and women serving our country. On January 30, 2010, CNN conducted a live interview with General William E. Ward, commander of U.S. Africa Command, discussing his experiences as the only black four-star general currently serving in the U.S. military. "I look at it as a chance to demonstrate that you can achieve those things if you set your mind to them, if you apply yourself in productive ways, if you're prepared to accept opportunity that comes your way and then move on," Ward said during the interview. He was also asked about U.S. Africa Command's role in the Haiti disaster relief efforts. Ward explained that an Africa Partnership Station vessel that was en route to West Africa for military-to-military training events was diverted to Haiti along with several African ship-riders who were on board. Ward was in Atlanta, Georgia to accept the Trumpet Award, which recognizes the accomplishments of black Americans who have significantly contributed to enhancing the quality of life for all. The complete CNN transcript is available at archives.cnn.com/TRANSCRIPTS/1001/30/cnr.01.html
As our only black American four-star General currently serving in the U.S. Military, he represents the first General to fulfill the position of USA Commander, U.S. Africa Command, Stuttgart, Germany, commencing this assignment in October 2007. Prior to assuming his current position, Commander Ward was Deputy Commander, Headquarters US European Command, Stuttgart, Germany. The U.S. Africa Command is one of six unified geographic commands within the Department of Defense unified command structure. He previously served as the Deputy Commanding General/Chief of Staff, US Army Europe and Seventh Army. While in this capacity he was selected by the Secretary of State to serve as the United States Security Coordinator, Israel - Palestinian Authority where he served from March through December 2005.
General Ward's awards and badges include: the Defense Distinguished Service Medal (with Oak Leaf Cluster); the Distinguished Service Medal; the Defense Superior Service Medal (with two Oak Leaf Clusters); the Legion of Merit (with three Oak Leaf Clusters); the Defense Meritorious Service Medal; the Meritorious Service Medal (with six Oak Leaf Clusters); the Joint Service Commendation Medal; the Army Commendation Medal (with three Oak Leaf Clusters); the Army Achievement Medal (with Oak Leaf Cluster); the Expert Infantryman's Badge; the Combat Infantryman's Badge; and the Master Parachutist Badge.

What's a command sergeant major's "coin of excellence", and how are they made?
I've read of some military people receiving these for meritorious service but not a lot of explanation about where they're from and how they're made, designed, etc.
Most "Coins of Excellence" are made through a minting company. These coins are given for meritorious service or an action that doesn't quite meet expectations for military honors. It's more than a pat on the back but less than a medal.
