WHAT YOU RECEIVED
DEA San Diego Narcotics Task Force Coin
The DEA San Diego Narcotics Task Force is a multi-agency law enforcement team led by the Drug Enforcement Administration’s San Diego Division that brings together federal, state, and local partners — including DEA agents, the San Diego Police Department, county sheriff’s deputies, Border Patrol, and others — to investigate, disrupt, and dismantle major narcotics trafficking and distribution networks in the San Diego region. Its work focuses on targeting mid- to high-level drug dealers and criminal organizations involved in the illegal drug trade, conducting undercover operations, surveillance, seizures, arrests, and supporting prosecutions to remove dangerous drugs like fentanyl and methamphetamine from communities. By pooling expertise and resources, the task force enhances coordination across jurisdictions to reduce drug-related crime and improve public safety along this busy border area.
Farmington PD Coin
The Farmington Police Department in Farmington, Maine, is the local law enforcement agency serving this Franklin County community. Based at 116 Franklin Avenue, the department’s mission is “to create a feeling of safety for the people within the Town of Farmington,” and it provides a range of services including crime prevention, emergency response, traffic enforcement, school resource support, and community programs. The department is staffed by sworn officers, support personnel, and specialty units such as a K-9 officer, and works closely with residents to maintain public safety and address local concerns. For non-emergency matters, the department can be contacted at (207) 778-6311, and the public is welcome to visit or inquire about services like fingerprinting, police reports, and community outreach.
Farmington, Maine, is also famous as the birthplace of Chester Greenwood (December 4, 1858 – July 5, 1937), the American inventor credited with inventing the earmuff at age 15. Frustrated by cold ears while ice skating, he fashioned a pair of ear covers made from wire loops with fur sewn on by his grandmother, later improving the design with a steel headband and securing a patent for his “improved ear protectors” in 1877. Greenwood’s invention became a business — “Greenwood’s Champion Ear Protectors” — and provided jobs for people in the Farmington area for nearly six decades. Beyond earmuffs, he patented various other devices and helped develop local industry, including one of the town’s first telephone systems. Farmington honors his legacy each year with Chester Greenwood Day, celebrated with parades and community events.
GIVING BACK
The Maine State Troopers Foundation is a nonprofit charity established in the mid-1990s to support and enhance the work of the Maine State Police and related public safety and community programs across the state. It helps fund and promote initiatives that benefit youth, victims of violence, athletic and social service programs, memorials for fallen troopers, and community outreach efforts, often partnering with groups like Special Olympics Maine and organizations supporting children of law-enforcement members. The foundation raises money through private and public donations, fundraising campaigns, and merchandise sales, and accepts tax-deductible contributions to further its mission of strengthening public safety and community well-being in Maine.
