Nicely centered too!....The proportional fonts is a red flag for me, but not for the "journalists" at CBS. Journalism at the major networks is SO embarassing, I rather tell people that I play piano in a whorehouse than admit to being part of "Network News".

You bring up a good point about the centering. And back in the day of typewriters, documents would be riddled with typos and correction marks. Yet there's not even an extra space between words, or any xxxxx over a wrong word, or obvious use of an eraser or correction fluid. Very odd.

I wonder if anyone involved in this understands the penalties for falisfying government documents, particularly military records.

Your point about corrections is well-taken. The documents I had declassified for a book was the WW II correspondence of Secretary of the Interior, Harold Ickes. We got access to microfilm copies of the carbon paper originals kept in the Secretary's office. ALL the documents showed evidence of erasing and retyping the corrections in the original and the carbons.
