I unlocked my first coin late Sunday. I wrote down the code and brought it to work. I forgot to write down the website though... does anyone know the website to redeem the coins?

truesoldiers.americasarmy.com

It's not working for me though.. When I try to enter a code it says "Coins must be redeemed in the order they are earned. If you have not redeemed a previous Coin, please do" This is for the first code in the list

Hey, thanks for the website info. I'd love to tell you that it accepted my code and I redeemed my first coin, but unfortunately I recieved the same message you did.

Must be ages 17 to 42 for grand prizes? Why is there a cap at 42?

I get that same error.

If you're too old to enlist, they don't want to hear from you

Guess so!
I'm not too old, but close enough to wonder about that part.

Why the cap because you can't enlist in the Army above 42 or under 17 (17 ROTC) :-) LOL!!!

It applies to the Grand Prize. I guess They don't want someone keeling over on doing a day (or is it a week?) of boot camp. Unfortunately this applies to me as I will be 43 in 2008. Ironically, I'm in better shape at 42 than when I was 22.

If the Grand Prize is a weekend at boot camp, I think I'll pass lol. But if it's a trip to the shooting range with 10 crates of ammo, then I'm there!

I tried to find the spot to enter my code but had some problems. On the game it says to go to: http://truesoldiers.americasarmy.com/

If you read the information on the link for new recruits it says you must have AA PC game account to redeem coins. I haven't done that yet so I don't know if that is correct. I guess I will just wait until we find some solid info.

I need to confirm, you guys are making it to this page? Then once you insert a coin number it gives you the error?

I would try, but I don't yet have the game

Yea, I created the account and all that stuff. When I got to the point of entering the code I got the same message that MeanMF reported. I guess I'll try it again in a day or two.

I tried it again to get a screenshot, and it WORKED!

We’ve been monitoring the boards and have been working with the America’s Army Web team to address this issue since it was brought to light by the community. I’d like to announce that a fix has been made and the site now allows the Army Coins to be redeemed as intended. Thanks for the information and please know that we are reading all the feedback and bug reports that are being posted.

Excellent, thanks Randy!

Cool! That was quick. Thanks guys. I'm at school now, but I plan to put my codes in when I get home. Maybe I can win one of those action figures!
