How accurately you report that he embodied serene America. Standing on his achievements, Ike may truly be regarded as one of America's, nay, the world's greatest generals.

A yeoman three in the Naval Reserve, Graphics Designer Wheeler chose ribbons* for his symbolic serviceman in khaki that range over four wars-World War I, World War II, Korea and Viet Nam. He is well aware that no one man could have won them all. "Grouped together," he says, "they stand for valor." Carefully examined, they also say something else. Since his cover figure represents a military Establishment under attack, Navy Man Wheeler decided to slip in a nautical signal for trouble. On shipboard, that would be the ensign flying upside down...
