The second batch of NHA Lifetime Member (LTM) Challenge Coins arrived in late November 2020 and will be mailed to NHA Lifetime Members when they cannot be directly picked up at the NHA Office or thru distribution by NHA Region. This NHA Region option is being worked and has not been approved yet. Region 1 folks have been contacted directly for whom we have coins in hand at the NHA Office to come by and collect them weekdays during business hours. 30 to 40 of the second batch of 500 coins from our vendor were not correct and are being remade a third time. We have not received these yet.

CAPT Gillcrist and I are working on the mailing aspect currently which is no small project so be patient. Please make sure your NHA Profile mailing address is correct. Questions about NHA Lifetime Membership can be directed to CDR Mike "Bus" Short, USN, VP of Membership (Bus is deployed currently so send your questions to me) or the NHA Retired Affairs Director, CDR Mike Brattland, USN (Ret.).

NHA would like to thank CAPT Tom Webber, USN (Ret.) LTM #107 who graciously gave up his Lifetime Member Number 107 and Coin to honor CAPT Robbie Roberts, USN (Ret.), our 2017 NHA Mark Starr Award Winner, Oldest Helix, and Lifetime Member who turns 107 years old in April, 2021.

 The HSM-40 Airwolves Team will be presenting CAPT Roberts his NHA Lifetime Member Challenge Coin #107 in a special ceremony in the near future.
