That's the cheaper answer of course.

There are numerous vendors online that you can buy the USCG and USCGAux awards from and create a shadow box that encompasses everything, which I believe would look nicer.

I guess I'm failing to see what 50 years in CAP has to do with the USCG/USCG Aux.

It's all Service to our great Nation... isn't it.

Also, seems the member in question wears the awards on his CAP uniform, abet incorrectly, but it would tend to speak as to what he wants, not what you want.
