The medal is gold colored and silver dollar sized. Front is US Army logo and the back thanks the troops and has the USPS logo.

Can only tell you post October, 1993, when the logo was changed:

In October 1993 Postmaster General Marvin Runyon unveiled new corporate guiding principles and a new corporate signature. The Postal Service’s Vision and Guiding Principles” statements were a combined effort among leaders of postal unions, management associations and postal management designed to focus the organization on the needs of our customer. The corporate signature evolved into a more modern looking version of the former eagle emblem. The signature highlights the Eagle’s head and beak leaning into the wind.

I looks like it would be a Retirement gift from the postal service, a lot of postal employees were in the military!!!!! he/she may have been very proud of their service in the army that's why it was made this way!!!!

Good luck finding more info!!!!!!
