Significance
The blue field of our shield with the white clouds symbolizes the primary theater of concern to our United States Central Command Air Forces . The golden bladed sword, with red hilt and pommel is emblematic of military honor and strength. These qualities are engendered in every member of our expeditionary wing. The sword is entwined with an olive branch , the badge of peace. Our emblem is symbolical of the truth that peace can be realized by maintaining strength in the air.
