This logo was created on Dec. 13, 2022, using vector-based graphics and techniques in Adobe Illustrator to represent Allied Command Transformation’s Excellence Award program. It features a shield to convey resiliency and strength, four stars to represent that a four-star general is awarding it, and the logo uses the NATO blue color palette. Allied Command Transformation is NATO’s warfare development command located in North America, dedicated to preserving the peace, security, and territorial integrity of Alliance member states by leading the warfare development of military structures, forces, capabilities and doctrines.
