    He counts. And I found the blazoning in an article, "Reprint from 'The Armiger's News' July2004," at the American College of Heraldry site.
    http://www.americancollegeofheraldry.org/TANJUL04a.htm

    Arms: �Azure, two swords in saltire points downwards between four stars Argent, on a chief of the Second a lion passant Gules.�

    Crest: �the head of an American bald-headed eagle erased the erasure per bend sinister Proper.�

    Motto: �Devoted to Public Service.�
