Calling All Veterans: Claim Your Free IBEW Veteran Challenge Coin

The IBEW recognizes that many of its members have answered the call to serve their country before or alongside their careers as union electrical workers. In recognition of that dual commitment to country and union, all IBEW members who have served in the U.S. or Canadian militaries are eligible to claim an IBEW Veteran Challenge Coin, free of charge. This is the IBEW’s way of saying thank you to the Brothers and Sisters who put on a uniform and served.

The IBEW Veteran Challenge Coin is a striking keepsake designed with the pride and tradition of military service in mind. Shaped and sized like a military dog tag, the coin is individually numbered — making yours one of a kind. It features the flags of both the United States and Canada alongside the iconic IBEW seal, honoring members from both nations who have served. Whether you display it, carry it or pass it down, this coin is a lasting symbol of your service and your union membership.

Claiming your coin is simple. Fill out the online form and your IBEW Veteran Challenge Coin will be mailed directly to you at no cost. Don’t miss your chance — this is a limited opportunity, and every veteran in our Local deserves to have one.

If you know a Brother or Sister in IBEW Local 8 who served and may not have heard about this opportunity, pass it along. Every veteran in our Local has earned this coin, and we want to make sure no one misses out. Share this story and help us honor every veteran in our union family.
