In the "3-D Lounge" at http://forums.spaatz.org/, there was a discussion regarding the Frank Borman Falcon Award which was unceremoniously discontinued in July 1979.

I was wondering if anyone in this forum might be a recipient of the Falcon Award and would consider posting a picture of their award here as I would like to actually see one.

If National Executive Committee (NEC) had not voted to delete this award, I might have earned one myself!

Here is a Falcon Award pic. This was Brig Gen Rich Andersons. He sent it to me so I could photograph it for some computer backdrops.

The pix of the Falcon Medal is much appreciated but I was really interested in seeing a picture of the actual Falcon Award certificate which I assume has similar dimensions (11" x 14") as the Spaatz Award certificate.

I will contact Gen Anderson and see if I can get a scan.
