DON'T WAIT
- DO IT NOW! BECOME A KNIGHT TODAY! |
|
|
The
emblem of the order incorporates a shield mounted upon a formee
cross. The shield is associated with a midieval knight and the
formee cross is an artistic representation of the cross of Christ.
Mounted on the shield are three objects: a fasces standing
vertically, crossed behind it an anchor and a dagger or short
sword. The fasces from Roman days is symbolic of
authority. The anchor is the Mariner's symbol for
Columbus. The short sword is the weapon of the knight when engaged
in an errand of mercy. |
