<p>[QUOTE=&quot;gsalexan, post: 1110462, member: 24274&quot;]I picked up another interesting card recently that led to a bit of research. Like the Family day card posted earlier, this was another &quot;private&quot; souvenir card put out by the Bureau of Engraving and Printing. It was issued last November to commemorate Armed Forces Day (Veterans Day). I did some online searching, contacted another card collector and wrote the BEP for more information.</p><p><br /></p><p>Turns out this series started in 2004. They were produced as program inserts for BEP&#039;s annual Armed Forces Day ceremony in DC. I was able to obtain images of each year, except one, although some are low resolution. BEP also provided print quantities, at least for the earlier years, but offered no reason for why they stopped keeping track.</p><p><br /></p><p>2004: “We Proudly Salute Our Armed Forces&quot;&nbsp; Quantity: 1000</p><p>2005: “Armed Forces Day&quot;&nbsp; Quantity: 1000</p><p>2006: &quot;Count On Us, Women In the Military&quot;&nbsp; Quantity: 1500</p><p>2007: &quot;In Honor of Our Veterans&quot;&nbsp; Quantity: Est. 1000[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
