⚓︎Coast Guard Yeomen Dual Flag Retirement Chest ⚓︎

Check out a recent custom-ordered retirement chest made for a Coast Guard servicemember.  

A Yeoman Chief Petty Officer (YNC) works directly with our personnel to solve problems, council, answer questions related to career changes, entitlements, and nearly all personnel related actions to help our service members navigate through their careers. 

We paid special tribute by personalizing our WoodyThings Military Retirement Chest – which is made from solid wood and measures approximately  26” long x 15″ wide x 12” tall.

These measurements allows for the versions that include a 3” lid to hold two flag displays, another 2-3” shadow box to sit inside, and another 6 or so inches underneath to store other items.

We made a large shadow box to sit flushed inside the chest. This allows for maximum storage while still having plenty of spaces to us for displays.

On the outside of the chest we added the recipient’s rank, full name, and the US Coast Guard emblem underneath.

The inside of the chest is personalied as well. The inside of the lid includes room for two flags to be displayed on each side. 

The unit sprung for us to personalize the chest and add a folded American Flag, and the US Coast Guard Colors on the inside of the lid.

The center was lined with black matted felt, perfect for adorning with the recipient’s awards, ribbons, medals, pictures, plaque and more.

While the inside of the lid serves as a shadowbox (behind removable plexiglass), this retirement chest also contains a shadowbox tray, backed with black felt to mount ribbons, medals, badges, picture and more!

The chest is comprised of glossy, gold-hinges, latches and corners through the chest.

The handles were made from 5/8” thick manilla rope.

This chest can be presented as-is, or filled with additional gifts personalized for the recipients. Suggestions include unit patches, coins, a folded flag, books, a nice bottle 😉, a nice congratulatory cigar, etc.
