The following Major General Eugene A. Lupia award example has been taken out of IMT viewer so the formatting might be off.  I did not change mission information, only names to protect myself and the people I have received the information from.  If you have anything you would like to submit, please do so.  If you have found this information useful, please let me know. Everyone of these letters has taken considerable amount of time to put together.  Please treat yourself to something special from one of the ads on the page.  We will both get something out of it.  (All money gathered pays for hosting fees and domain fees.  HONESTLY, when I see money come in it also prompts me to work harder on the site.)

First off, this is the first time i have ever seen a Major General Eugene A. Lupia award.  So without a solid background on it, i only looked at the structure of the bullets and readability. Overall, this package is very good.  Only a couple of numbering issues and one spelling error.  Definitely something to look at for anyone working on a Major General Eugene A. Lupia award.
