The Catholic War Veterans Emblem consists of several parts.

The Celtec Cross represents to us the symbol of Christianity preserved and protected by the valiant forefathers.

The Letters US on the star are for the United States and stand for the Constitution on which are based our principals.

The Star stands for the glory of victory.

The Wreath is for the remembrance of those who died that liberty might live.

The Circle denotes the perpetuity of the Church which will last until the end of time as guaranteed by the founder of Jesus Christ.

The Olive Branch of Peace signifies our attitude toward all men in fullfillment fo our Lord’s behest, “Love thy Neighbor as Thyself.”

We …American Citizens …members of the Catholic Church …under the spiritual authority of our Holy Father, the Pope, Bishop of Rome …and who have served in the Armed Forces of the United States of America ..in order that we may be bound by a greater spirit of faith and patriotism …and that we may be of greater service to God, Country and to one another …and in order to perpetuate our ideas and ideals …establish a permanent organization.
