APR-JUN Volunteer Magazine is out and the triangle on the cover is gone!

Agh. The logo lives. It's in the NEC PowerPoint.

WHY, NHQ?! WHY DO WE DESERVE THIS?! WHAT DID WE DO TO YOU?!

Two words (Google it): style guide. Approve it and send it out to the members. Enforce it. Use it. Follow it.

What if some of our professionals in the field collaborate and develop a grass roots style guide that others may choose to follow until something official comes around... they may pass that guide through the chain for review and maybe the ball will get rolling?

We have had similar discussions where we talked about signatures but never really tried to standardize one that we could choose to use (not that I'm aware of), thus making some consistency. A drop in the bucket, I know, but I've seen the same take place internally at the fortune 500 I work for and grow organically in a rapid way...

Anyway... what would it take for an official one? A Wing or Region CC proposing that one get created by x committee within y amount of time? A vote happens and then work starts? - I guess this is a drift... maybe someone will take the idea on in another thread...

Oh! I forgot about THIS logo...

I have a logo THIS BIG,
and it has Excedrin
written all over it.

I haven't even opened up the magazine and I noticed a faux pas on the cover -- the markings on the airplane's wings are backward. The rondel goes on the left (pilot's side) upper wing and right lower wing, the "CAP" on the other side.

Ribbon Rack... Most of those ribbons are RM, but I was curious about the white with blue ribbon at the end of the stack. Any ideas as to what that is?

Its white and Green. Vietnam Campain Medal.

Assuming this doesn't violate the flag code, it definitely needs a stroke to separate the tri-prop from the
flag.

I was assuming that too, but I was tempted to check...

The logo, which is definitely off-topic in this thread, is just an example of poor conceptualization and execution. Did the guy who did that logo do the one for the U.S. Ranger Corps?
