I've been messing with this mini for too long now, adding and removing a paper towel snip, testing out what it looks like with this or that leaf gone. I'm tired. Can anyone offer suggestions to make it nice and symmetrical? TIA!

My Dad was in the Navy from 1952 to 1956. The DD214 (JUL 1 52 version) question #29 asks about 'wounds received as a result of action with _____ forces.... is this enemy?

The series of dashes looks like none but for the second one that is a dash and a unknown character or #, is this a typo or is this a '1'?
