MAJ Ruths writes: This is a company that I commanded from 2004 to 2006. This unit was and still is at Camp Casey, Korea.

"The front says 'FSC TF 2-9 IN(M)' - this stands for Forward Support Company, Task Force 2-9 Infantry (Mechanized). The reverse shows US and Korean flags, large crossed rifles, and the Army values. Branches that represented the Soldiers in the Company are featured on both the front and reverse."
