SECT Intelligence C(x un1ty Medal Certificate
I Wilson and I have examined the proposed certificate
for Intelligence Coemunity medals which you brought to s' office on
29 August. I like it very wuch, but the following changes should be
jade:
a. Intensify the blue disc surrounding the eagle so that
the contrast of the white eagle is much more sharp.
b. Decrease the size of the script in the five lines
beginning with "To all who. . and ending with`'has awarded
the." so there will be some white space between the bottom
of the eagle and the first line of the script and white
space between the last line of the script and the beginning
of the title of the medal.
c. "Rational IntelligenceR is part of the title of the
medal and should be in the same script and of the same color
as "Distinguished Service Medal."
4. Reduce the size of the last blue two lines beginning
with "Given under ray hand" to match the reduced script size
you will be us i ng in the five lines above the title of the
dal.
