USAF AFSOC / CSAR Transfer Challenge Coin

USAF Air Force Special Operations Command / Combat Search & Rescue Transfer / 1 October 2003 / Challenge Coin
This coin appears to be from when the Air Force made a command transfer of the all the Rescue Wings being in Air Combat Command to Air Force Special Operations Command (AFSOC) in 2003.  Them they changed back from Air Force Special Operations Command to Air Combat Command in 2005. 
In 1993, concurrent with the disestablishment of MAC and the transfer of peacetime and combat search and rescue responsibilities to ACC, the AFRCC relocated from Scott AFB to Langley Air Force Base, Virginia. In October 2003, CSAR was temporarily realigned under AFSOC, resulting in what was thought would be a merger of Regular Air Force, Air Force Reserve Command and Air National Guard HC-130P/N assets with MC-130P Combat Shadow assets and integration of HH-60G Pave Hawk assets with MH-53J/M Pave Low IV assets. However, this merger proved to be short-lived and the HC-130P/N and HH-60G CSAR assets were ultimately transferred back to ACC claimancy in 2005.
