USAF Considers New Logo
As the Air Force continues its transition to an expeditionary aerospace force, it is focusing its identity to help with recruiting and retention in the new millennium. As part of this effort, officials are establishing a single, compelling theme and symbol to represent the Air Force to its members and the public. The proposed symbol updates the Hap Arnold wings and star with a more modern, angular design. Many people believe the Hap Arnold emblem is the official Air Force symbol, but it isnt, said Col. Ron Rand, Air Force director of public affairs. We dont have an official symbol, and never have had one. With the transition to the EAF and a new millennium, our leadership decided the timing is right to modernize our identity and give us an official symbol that will preserve the heritage of the Arnold wings. |
