The Back -- Africa and Afghanistan represent our two AORS. The HALO wings are because we are a military free fall team.

The Front -- The 12 arrows on the outside represnet the 12 man ODA. The lightening bolts represent the 3 ways of infiltration (land, sea, air). The Black, Red and Green represents the colors of Afghanistan. The "RT Carolina" is a tribute to the Special Forces "RT" teams of Vietnam.
