THE BATTALION MEDALLION


What is it? Should you wear it?Should it hang from your rearview mirror?How do you get one? This my friends is the Battalion Medallion,should you wear it or hang it from your rearview mirror,it doesn't really matter, it is a badge of honour, a sign of membership.There are two ways to get one.(1)graduation from battalion(grade12). (2)completing the memory work. Actually there are three ways to get the medallion we also give them to honorary members.They are MIKE HERRERA from MXPX,JON FOREMAN from SWITCHFOOT,KEVIN MICHAEL MCKEEHAN(TOBYMAC),TIM ROSENAU from THE DIVERSE CITY BAND,JOHN REUBEN ZAPPIN(JOHN REUBEN),DAN HASELTINE from JARS OF CLAY,STACY "COFFEE" JONES and TERON "BONAFIDE" CARTER from GRITS,PETER FURLER from NEWSBOYS and MARK STUART from AUDIO ADRENALINE. Ben Jepsen(bull dog) was the first to wear the medallion and Jason Hayashi was the one who named it.I'll end with what it represents,the outside ring represents us as a BATTALION and as individuals.The inside represents JESUS ,our goal is to keep him in the center of our lives as individuals and as our central focus as a BATTALION.
