RCSCC TRUXTUN
Blazon: | Gules, the terrestrial globe displaying the western hemisphere in front of two naval cutlasses, hilts down, crossed in saltire, all proper, and in base a mullet Argent. |
Significance: | The crops is named after the USS TRUXTUN, a U.S. Naval destroyer sunk off the coast of Newfoundland during World War II. Many of the crew members of the TRUXTUN were rescued by citizens of Lawn, who have retained a strong connection with the current U.S. ship of the same name. The badge is an adaptation of that of the present USS TRUXTUN. The globe signifies the world-wide responsibilities of the U.S. Navy, represented as a fighting service by the cutlasses. The star indicates the American connection of the ship, as found in the badges of all World War II Royal Navy ships of American origin. |
Notes: | RCSCC Truxtun, Lawn, Newfoundland |
