Vietnam War Deployment Rings

1 November 1955 was the first day of a war spanning over 19 years, the Vietnam War.

The origins of the Vietnam War

The Vietnam War was a war between the communist supported North Vietnam and the US and other anti-communist nations South Vietnam. With its duration of over 19 years, the casualties on both sides were tremendous, and the U.S Army deployed large numbers of troops, as its involvement escalated in the ‘60s, seeing a tripling in troops in ’61 and another tripling in ’62.

In sheer numbers, there were over 2,5 million soldiers who served in the Vietnam war,  out of which over 1,5 million were US Army, over 300 thousands US Marines, over 150 thousands US Navy and  over 290 thousand US Air Force, total casualties being 58,212 killed and 1,711 missing.

It’s easy to customize the stone – you can choose your birth stone, or a simple diamond like stone, or even a laser vue engraved stone.

Operation Iraqi Freedom Deployment Rings

Iraqi Operation Freedom (the US military name for the Iraq War) – began in 2003, 20^th of March to be more precise, and has been one of this century’s most gruesome war, and at the same time, one of the most successful military campaigns.

Iraqi Operation Freedom – winning takes sacrifices

Of course, everybody knows that Iraqi Operation Freedom meant the demise of the much hated dictator Saddam Hussein. This was perhaps one of the most wanted men in history, alongside Osama Bin Laden. However, until capturing Saddam and securing Iraq, the US military and the allied forces made countless sacrifices, and lots of men and women put their lives in danger serving their country and, unfortunately, some of them didn’t return home.  In sheer numbers, over 4,476 US soldiers were killed, 32,629 were wounded and 51,139 were injured.

The Gulf War or Operation Desert Storm as it was its operation name in the military started 2 august 1990 and lasted until 28 February 1991. It was a U.N war led by the United States against the Iraq’s invasion and annexation of Kuwait.

Operation Desert Storm for the US military
The US military and President Bush especially, tried to solve the conflict in a diplomatic manner, but, with Saddam Hussein’s reluctance to cease all hostilities, UN troops were deployed into battle. The US’s launch of Operation Desert Storm was made by General H. Norman Schwarzkopf, USA Commander-in-Chief at that time in a message to the command, 16 January 1991 and it stated:

“Soldiers, sailors, airmen and Marines of the United States Central Command, this morning at 0300, we launched Operation DESERT STORM, an offensive campaign that will enforce the United Nation’s resolutions that Iraq must cease its rape and pillage of its weaker neighbor and withdraw its forces from Kuwait. My confidence in you is total. Our cause is just! Now you must be the thunder and lightning of Desert Storm. May God be with you, your loved ones at home, and our Country.”

There is also the option not to have a stone on the ring, and to have the branch’s insignia engraved in the metal of the ring (gold, silver or validium).

Operation Enduring Freedom Deployment Rings

On 7 October 2001, early combat operations in Afghanistan signaled the start of Operation Enduring Freedom

The Origins of the Campaign
The operation was originally called “Operation Infinite Justice” (often misquoted as “Operation Ultimate Justice”),but as similar phrases have been used by adherents of several religions as an exclusive description of God, it is believed to have been changed to avoid offense to Muslims, who are the majority religion in Afghanistan.

U.S. President George W. Bush’s remark that “this crusade, this war on terrorism, is going to take a while”, which prompted widespread criticism from the Islamic world, and may also have contributed to the renaming of the operation.

This campaign has continued todate and it’s estimated that over 2 million US Military service personnel
have served in Afghanistan and Iraq or both. With a contingent of approx 103700 currently serving in Afghanistan.

Deployments have always been a part of military life and many have
had a significant impact on keeping American safe and secure.

Operation Enduring Freedom Deployment Rings – designed to commemorate previous sacrifice.

One of the best ways to commemorate this time abroad is with deployment rings.
These beautifully crafted rings are a tribute to these deployments and there are a number of different options for creating the perfect ring. For example, perhaps you want to give your loved one a ring for
deploying to Operation Enduring Freedom in Afghanistan.

These rings can be customized to suite the individual service person
To what extent can you customize Operation Enduring Freedom Deployment Rings?
First of all, you can customize the stone. There are two options: simple cut diamond like stone, or laser vue cut stone. The laser vue option lets you engrave whatever you want inside the stone.
Popular choices include the American flag or corps insignia; there are 19 options to choose from.

You’ll also be happy to know that Operation Enduring Freedom Deployment Rings can have their sides customized. You can have the soldier’s name on one of the sides, just below the unit’s insignia, and the deployment date or TOD date on the other side.

Another much appreciated customization option is the fact that you can also write a very personal message inside of the ring – however, you need to keep it under 18 characters, spaces included.

While deployment rings are the perfect choice for someone just leaving,
they are also a great gift for someone who has just returned. Perhaps you’d like to give a deployment
ring for an anniversary, birthday, or retirement gift. However, there doesn’t have to be a special
occasion to recognize the selfless service and sacrifice of our military members.

Customized military rings for drill sergeants

What exactly is a Drill sergeant?
Drills sergeants are non commissioned officers that are very important within the military. This
is because they dedicate themselves to training our soldiers to the highest standards.  It’s their
dedication that ensures our soldieries leave basic training as competent professionals who are
ready for a challenging career in the military.

Different titles within the military for what is essentially the same job
Before rushing and buying the first military ring that you lay your eyes on, you should know that
Drill Sergeants is a rank that has many variations in other branches of the military, this term is a
common term given to drill instructors in the Army alone.

Other variations within the other branches of the military.
But perhaps the person you want to give the gift is in the Navy, then we’re talking about Recruit
Division Commanders, and if the person is in the Air Force, they are called Military Training
Instructors; the US Coast Guard uses “Company Commanders” and the Marine uses “Marine
Corps Drill Instructor”.   Why is important to know that?  Because being military means that you
take pride in your rank. There’s a saying “once a Marine, always a Marine”.  Keep this in mind!
As getting a Drill Sergeant Ring for someone who’ is an instructor in the Navy might not be totally
suitable.

Make sure you customize your Drill Sergeant Rings
It’s needless to say that if you want to make the ring special, then you should customize it. There are
plenty of customization options for military rings, drill sergeant rings included, so you can make sure
that you tailor fit the ring for the particular person you’re buying it for.

Having the rank, name, years of service, flag and a special engraved message will do great honor to all
drill sergeants. So keep these aspects in mind when you’re shopping for drill sergeant rings and you’ll
get a perfect gift that will be much appreciated!

The military ring can also have the soldier’s name engraved on one side just below the unit’s insignia,
and an additional text on the other side (you can put the military school’s name and or date of graduation).

Naturally, inside the military ring you can add a more personal message, but it has to be within the limits
of 18 characters with spaces included.

How to order a customized military ring?
You can order your chosen ring here online in three easy steps ( all major credit cards accepted ), then
have it shipped direct to your soldier no matter where they are deployed around the world. Shipping

Joining the army means so much for so many people

No matter if we’re talking about your spouse, boyfriend or girlfriend or child, when someone joins the
army, most loved ones are deeply touched, and deeply worried at the same time. Truth be told, most
people who join the army are either “army brats” who want to continue the family’s tradition, or youngsters
who found the army to be the only alternative they had to a life that was unable to provide them with what
they can.  Naturally, when someone joined the army and completed training and is about to start his or her
career, it’s a tense and joyful moment at the same time, and a gift is always welcomed.  That’s why so many
consider military rings. So, are they an appropriate gift?

Military rings dos and don’ts
Firstly, a military ring is something that shows pride: the pride of making it through training, the pride of being part of a big family and the pride of serving’s one’s country.  Having a military ring without earning it, and even worse, wearing it will always be something that will raise some spirits, because, only those who’ve been in the army and who are in the army know what a long and hard road they had to take to get to where they are.  So, yes, a military ring is an appropriate gift for someone who joined the army, and completed their training!

Choosing the perfect military ring
Military rings can be customized with the unit’s insignia, the branch of the army the soldier is in, his or her name, and even a special message written inside of the ring.

The stone of the ring comes in different colors and shapes, and there’s even the
“Laser Vue” option which means that inside the stone there will be a laser engraving of the
branch insignia or the American flag.  It depends entirely on you whether  you want the stone
to be simple, or engraved. Around the stone, you can customize the military ring with wording.
Some like to write either a motto or simply the “United States Army”.

The military ring can also have the soldier’s name engraved on one side just below the unit’s insignia,
and an additional text on the other side (you can put the military school’s name and or date of graduation).

Naturally, inside the military ring you can add a more personal message, but it has to be within
the limits of 18 characters with spaces included.

Customizing artillery corps rings

A bit of history of the U.S Army Coast Artillery Corps
Historically, the U.S Army Coast Artillery Corps was the Corps level organization that was
responsible between the years 1901 and 1950 to defend US’s coast and harbors. Because of
the rapid advances in weaponry and various techniques used, the coastal defenses were
separated from the field artillery, and in 1907 the Congress separated the Field Artillery
Branch and Coast Artillery, and created the Coast Artillery Corps which has 170 companies.

So where do Artillery Corps rings come into play?
It’s a well known tradition for military rings to be worn since 1835 by all United States Military
Academy senior cadets, which later became the most historically significant names in the
military history. You could say that military rings in particular and Army Corps rings in
general have a long history with the military, and you can’t simply dismiss it.

Easy customization steps
Today, military rings can be customized to a great extent, which makes it
easy to use them as graduation or retirement gifts. There are a few parts
in every ring that can be customized, and that you should keep in mind
when you’re customizing Artillery Corps rings.

First of all, the stone. The stone can be either simple, diamond shaped,
or laser vue. Laser vue means that an engraving is inside of the stone;
you can customize it with either the branch insignia or with the American
flag (these are the two most used customizations but you can have
anything you can imagine). The wording around the stone is also
customizable (most people go for the “United States Army”) as are
the sides and the inside of the ring.

The sides of the ring usually hold the name of the soldier and unit insignia
on a side, and on the other side you can add the years of service or the tours of duty and their dates.
The inside of the ring can be customized with any text you want as long as it’s 18 characters long with
spaces included.

Why a ring for a Corps that doesn’t exist anymore?
Because you either want to honor one of your family members who was a part of the Artillery Corps or,
because, if you’re lucky enough, you have a family member who is still alive and was a proud member
of the Corps, and customized Artillery Corps rings are one of the best gifts you could give.

How to choose that perfect Military Ring for your loved one

If your loved one is soon going to go on a deployment, or if you simply want to give them a gift
that will forever celebrate their military service, then, military rings make a perfect gift.
These small tokens of love are also suited for those that are retired from the army and want to
remember the time they served their country. But, there are many military rings to choose from,
so how can you be sure you choose the one that suits your military loved one perfectly?

Things you need to consider
There are a few things that you need to consider, and the size of the ring is the least important,
but, at the same time, you want to make sure you don’t spend your money on 2 or 3 military
rings because you were unable to buy a perfect size the first time. It’s easy to find out the size
you need. Take one ring that our loved one already wears, and measure the diameter. Then, it’s
a simple question of matching that diameter with the military ring you’re ordering.   So, let’s
move forward, to more important matters!

Military rings come in two main forms:  one; generic military rings, or customized military rings.

Let’s focus on generic military rings.
These rings have pretty much all the areas of the ring already covered with generic features.
Usually, the stone is either facet or fireflare. Facet means that the stone is shaped like a diamond,
having many faces that reflect the light – these are great classy military rings. If you go for fireflare,
we would suggest that you go for fireflare with laser vue option, meaning that a particular emblem
will be lasered into the stone of the ring. The emblems range from US Military, Navy, Air Force to
the US flag.

Your loved ones unit or formation
All you need to know what formation of the military your loved one served in. If you’re not sure,
then go for the US Flag emblem because that’s an extremely popular option with all departments.
The sides of the ring when it comes to generic military usually have on them emblems that reflect
the particular unit or division your military man served or serves in.

Customized military rings
When it comes to customized military rings, these have the same stone option – fireflare or facet,
but you can also add wordings around the stone. Usually, rings have “Navy”, “Army”, “Marines” or
“Air Force” but you can customize it with anything you want.  The sides of customized military rings
are also customizable, so besides the emblems of the unit or division, you can add the name of your
loved one, or the years of service and even icons of deployments.

Another thing that is really appreciated when it comes to customized military rings is the inside text.
Usually, you can put the name of your loved one, or you can add a personalized message – in the limit
of 18 characters with spaces.
