Graduation Gifts?

My mom framed my aeronautical rating cert with a set of wings in it. Looks really slick and matches my commissioning certificate.
 
My son graduated the US Army flight program at Fort Rucker last month, he's a second generation Army Rotorhead, here's what we got him...
A bottle of Courvoisier VSOP and a bottle of Dom Perignon, we toasted the occasion as a family.
A set of sterling silver Army Aviator wings. I would have loved to have passed on the wings I got when I graduated, but the kids long ago lost them when they would play Army.
A Bose A20 headset (airplane model) to encourage him to continue flying airplanes....

Other thoughts were a nice camera (Nikon D90), an iPad with a subscription for ForeFlight
 
I wound up with a framed rating and a few aviation books. Slickest gift I saw in our class was an engraved pistol.
