CHEVRONS Chevron (Insignia) ____________________________________________________ CHEVRONS Chevron (insignia) From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chevron_%28insignia%29 Jump to: navigation, search "Argent a chevron gules" A chevron (also spelled cheveron, especially in older documents) is an inverted V-shaped pattern. The word is usually used in reference to a kind of fret in architecture, or to a badge or insignia used in military or police uniforms to indicate rank or length of service, or in heraldry and the designs of flags (see flag terminology). The symbol is also used on highway signs to guide drivers around curves. Ancient history The chevron occurs in early art including designs on pottery and rock carvings. Examples can be found approximately 1800 BC in archaeological recovery of pottery designs from the palace of Knossos on Crete in the modern day country of Greece.[1] Sparta (Lacedaemonia (Λακεδαιμονία)) used a capital lambda (Λ) on their shields. Heraldry A chevron is one of the ordinaries in heraldry, one of the simple geometrical figures which are the chief images in many arms. It can be subject to a number of modifications. When the ends are cut off in a way that looks like the splintered ends of a broken piece of wood, with an irregular zig-zag pattern, it is called éclaté.[2] When shown as a smaller size than standard, it is a diminutive called a chevronel. 1 ____________________________________________________ Chevrons appeared early in the history of heraldry, especially in Normandy. In Scandinavia the chevron is known as sparre; an early example appears in the arms of Arvid Gustavsson Sparre.

One chevron usually designates a lance corporal, two a corporal, and three a sergeant. One to four "rockers" may also be incorporated to indicate various grades of sergeant. In American usage, chevrons typically point towards the neck; in Commonwealth usage they usually point away from the neck. In the Commonwealth, the correct terminology for rank chevrons includes the number of stripes, called "bars", therefore, the sergeants' insignia is properly termed a "3-bar chevron". Canadian and Australian Forces often refer to chevrons as "hooks". In the Dutch armed forces they are nicknamed "bananas".[3] Examples 3 ____________________________________________________ Single Chevron-Rank: Private E2, US Army. Double Chevron Corporal insignia, Royal Air Force NATO Code OR-4 Specialist/Petty Officer 3 Other uses as insignia French automobile manufacturer Citroën has used a two-chevron logo throughout its history. Goyard, the French luggage maker known as La Maison Goyard, uses a pattern of three juxtaposed chevrons on its signature painted canvas designs. The oil company Chevron uses inverted chevrons in its logo. The 2009–10 version of the Manchester United home kit has a black chevron on the front of the shirt, on the chest. This was added to honour the shirt worn by the club when they first won the FA Cup in 1909. Both FC Girondins de Bordeaux in France and Melbourne Victory FC from Australia have a mostly navy blue kit with a white inverted chevron across the chest of their respective kits. In some armies, small chevrons are worn on the lower left sleeve to indicate length of service, akin to service stripes in the U.S. military. 4 ____________________________________________________ During the Gulf War, coalition forces displayed single chevrons on their armoured vehicles to prevent friendly fire incidents. The Israel Defense Forces use chevrons in various orientations as organisational designators on their vehicles, specifically which company within a battalion they belong to. A downward- pointing chevron would mean it belongs to its battalion's first company, a forward-pointing one to the second, upward the third and backward the fourth company.[4] NASA also has an oblique chevron in its "meatball" logo. The Phantom Regiment Drum and Bugle Corps, a DCI World Class drum corps, uses the chevron as its emblem; many past and present members sport chevron tattoos. The chevron was also the basis for the closing drill formation for its 2006 field show Faust. Herringbone Gears are sometimes referred to as Chevron Gears. Used at level crossings under the crossbucks for multiple tracks in most European countries and Taiwan. See also Petrosomatoglyph Chevron symbolism.

ISBN 978-1-84176-579-2. The Chevrons of the Gala Uniform – UST Golden Corps of Cadets I. DEFINITION: The Chevron is worn on the sleeves of the Red Gala Uniform to show the position of the individual. When sewn on the sleeve, the neck is lined up with the shoulder strap of the Red Gala Uniform. Dimension is discussed on the next page and 5 ____________________________________________________ also the distance of the tip of the neck from the seam of the shoulder strap on the page after. II. HISTORICAL BACKGROUND: Various version of the chevron came about as years go by. In the 60s, there was a picture where the color combination was red over yellow as oppose to today’s yellow over black. There was also a time when the star of the Corps Commander was red from a picture from the 60s but for most part of the late 70s, 80s and early 90s, it was yellow. In recent years (2000s) the Philippine Army added the staffs G-5, G-7, G-8 and G-9 which included new design for the Corps Staff. III. PURPOSE: This publication is issued to standardize the Chevron of the Red Gala Uniform for the UST Golden Corps of Cadets. The late 90s up to present showed the officers wearing the “PMA style” of chevron which is “aerodynamically designed” vice the “angular design” for the Golden Corps. This is due mainly to the lack of knowledge on the part of the tailor (which almost changes year by year), lack of supply or laziness thereof. This design will correct that discrepancy to maintain the UST design and not mimic that of the other school’s design. 6 ____________________________________________________ Below is the standard format including measurement for the chevrons on the UST Golden Corps of Cadets Gala Uniform. All illustrations by RM Ania Isobel Acebedo of Class 2014: The neck (yellow part) is 1” wide and is 4” long (yellow portion) to the tip. The angle between the side of the neck and the top most tip is 45 NECK degrees. The angle between the side of the chevron and the shoulder is 35 SHOULDER degrees. The whole chevron is CHEVRON BAR black bordered at 0.2”. The chevron bar (the basis for counting the number of bars) is 0.5” as also with the yellow divider. The width of the chevron is 6.5” (yellow portion). BLACK BORDER YELLOW DIVIDER A scaled down version less than 1” from the original scale will be designed for female officers who have smaller sleeves width than male officers. 7 ____________________________________________________ Below are the different positions of the chevron from the highest to the lowest: Corps Commander (6 bars counting the black chevron plus big yellow star) There are only two people who wears the star: the Corps Commander and the Color Officer. The difference is that the Corps Commander has a bigger star than the Color Officer. The star is totally separate from the body of the chevron and that the tip pointing up is lined up with the two bottom tips of the chevron. The width of the star is 4” . Sewn beside the seam of the shoulder (including Corps Staff). If the sleeves of the wearer is short, this chevron is expected to overlap the class bars. The number of bars will also depend on the size of the unit so if for example the total strength of the unit is two battalions (equivalent to one brigade) then the troop commander will have one less bar of the chevron displayed on the left side but still with the big yellow star. 8 ____________________________________________________ Corps Ex-O (6 bars minus star) Sewn beside the seam of the shoulder. Brigade Commander (5 bars) Sewn 2 inches from the seam of the shoulder. Brigade Ex-O & Battalion Commander (4 bars) Sewn 2 inches from the seam of the shoulder. Battalion Ex-O & Company Commander (3 bars) Sewn 3 inches from the seam of the shoulder. Color Officer The star of the color officer is smaller than the Corps Commander. The width of the star is 2.5” . Sewn 3 inches from the seam of the shoulder. The star is totally separate from the body of the chevron and that the tip pointing up is lined up with the two bottom 9 ____________________________________________________ tips of the chevron like that of the Corps Commander. When marching with the color detail, everyone will salute the color. Company Ex-O & Platoon Leader (2 bars) Sewn 3 inches from the seam of the shoulder.

In this paper, we will consider heraldry in the Republic of Macedonia, understood by the multitude of coats of arms, and armorial knowledge and art. The paper covers the period from independence until the name change (1991-2019). It co- vers the state coat of arms of the Republic of Macedonia especially the 2009 change. Special atten- tion is given to the development of the municipal heraldry, including the legal system covering the subject. Also personal heraldry developed in 21 century is considered. The paper covers the de- velopment of heraldry and the heraldic thought in the given period, including the role of the Macedonian Heraldic Society and its journal Macedonian Herald in development of theoretic and practical heraldry, as well as its Register of arms and the Macedonian Civic Heraldic System. Keywords: Heraldry in Macedonia; Macedonian civic heraldry; Republic of Macedonia. 1. Introduction The Republic of Macedonia became independent from the Socialist Federative Re- public of Yugoslavia with the Referendum of 8 September 1991. The Democratic Federal Macedonia was formed during the first session of the Anti-Fascist Assembly for the Na- tional Liberation of Macedonia (ASNOM) on 2 August 1944 (it later became the People’s Republic of Macedonia, a federal unit of the Federal People’s Republic of Yugoslavia).

  • Finding the Adequate Location Scenario After the Merger of Fire Brigades Thanks to Multiple Criteria Decision Analysis Methods
    F O U N D A T I O N S O F C O M P U T I N G A N D D E C I S I O N S C I E N C E S Vol. 43 (2018) No. 2 ISSN 0867-6356 DOI: 10.1515/fcds-2018-0006 e-ISSN 2300-3405 Finding the Adequate Location Scenario After the Merger of Fire Brigades Thanks to Multiple Criteria Decision Analysis Methods Mohammad Aldabbas*, Francesca Venteicher*, Lenna Gerber*, Marino Widmer** Abstract. This paper addresses the issue of selecting a suitable location for a fire station in canton of Fribourg, as a result of a fire brigades’ merger, by applying Multiple Criteria Decision Analysis (MCDA) methods. Solving the problem of determining fire station locations through various methods has been analyzed in-depth by researchers. However, a different approach, based on application of ELECTRE I and ELECTRE II methods is advanced in this paper. The selection of the most suitable fire station site is obtained by applying the designated methods to five distinctive alternatives (called scenarios), taking into consideration the relatively limited information and specifics, and the extensive number of relevant criteria that summed up to sixty-one. Taking the merger of the three local fire departments as an example, the proposed methods for selecting a suitable location for the fire station demonstrate and justify the reason behind this choice. Research shows that the applied methods have been proven to be useful and powerful tools that exhibited acceptable levels of consistency when selecting the best project. The main finding is that one scenario in particular proved to be preferred over the others and most suitable in determining the fire station location.

  • Villars a Vélo Mobilité
    2 L’ensemble de ces planifications s’inscrivent dans la continuité des réflexions menées par la Commune de Villars-sur-Glâne sur son territoire dans le cadre de la démarche Agenda 21 finalisée en 2006. Dans le panel d’actions proposées, un concept global de mobilité douce a été développé visant à la mise en place de liaisons cyclables et de cheminements piétonniers à travers la Commune (cf. projets MO-1 et MO-2 en Annexe 1). Bon nombre de mesures préconisées dans ce cadre sont aujourd’hui réalisées ou en cours de réalisation, telles que la Dort-Verte et la passerelle de Villars-Vert. La TransAgglo s’appuie sur une partie de ces mesures, les complète et les renforce, et contribue à leur réalisation grâce à un financement important de l’Agglomération et de la Confédération. Le présent message traite des mesures d’agglomération suivantes : - 3M.06.02 (PA3) : TransAgglo, tronçon Avry - Croset - 20.7 et 20.8 (PA2) : TransAgglo, tronçon Croset - Platy - 41.17 (PA2) : TransAgglo, Passage inférieur à travers le Grand-Clos Traverser Villars-sur-Glâne de bout en bout, à pied ou à vélo, grâce à une voie de mobilité douce attrayante, sûre et conviviale, c’est ce que permettra la TransAgglo une fois réalisée dans son entier.

  • Spokane Flag Redesign Official Voters Guide
    Spokane Flag Redesign Official Voters Guide Welcome! The vote you are about to participate in reflects the culmination of almost two years’ work by ordinary Spokane citizens, City officials, and dozens of artists from around the country. Spokane’s current flag (show on the next page) has been a subject of mockery in vexillological (that’s a fancy word for the study of flags!) circles for years. However, it wasn’t until Spokane resident and now Flag Commission member Max Nesbitt presented a proposal to redesign the flag in early 2019 that the ball officially got rolling and gears began to turn. Spokane Councilmember Kate Burke took up Max’s call and proposed a resolution to form this Commission which passed that summer, and the Commission was formed that fall. Comprising voices of a multitude of perspectives, the Commission represents a cross section of Spokane –artists, students, politicians, civil servants and more. We considered an initial 400 designs and a public poll held in December 2020 narrowed it down to 100 semi-finalists. The Commission has selected these 12 finalists because we feel they reflect a diversity of styles and inspirations while falling within the guidelines we set out in our opening meetings. Happy voting! Spokane Flag Commission Joshua Hiler, Chair – Council Appointee, District 3 Max Nesbitt – Council Appointee, District 2 Corey Marcoux – Council Appointee, District 1 John Mujica – Council Appointee, At Large Matthew Budke – Mayoral Appointee Glenn Ford – Spokane Tribe Jeff Ferguson – Spokane Tribe Andrew Whitver – Spokane Arts Commission Scyla Dowd – Youth Appointee Kate Burke – City Council Betsy Wilkerson – City Council The Current Spokane Flag Adopted in 1975, this flag has seen little to no use since then.

  • ICV20 Lupant.Pub
    Emblems of the State of Katanga (1960-1963) Michel Lupant On June 30 1960 the Belgian Congo became the Republic of Congo. At that time Ka- tanga had 1,654,000 inhabitants, i.e. 12.5% of the population of the Congo. On July 4 the Congolese Public Force (in fact the Army) rebelled first in Lower-Congo, then in Leopoldville. On July 8 the mutiny reached Katanga and some Europeans were killed. The leaders of the rebels were strong supporters of Patrice Lumumba. Faced with that situation on July 11 1960 at 2130 (GMT), Mr. Tschombe, Ka- tanga’s President, delivered a speech on a local radio station. He reproached the Cen- tral government with its policies, specially the recruitment of executives from commu- nist countries. Because of the threats of Katanga submitting to the reign of the arbitrary and the communist sympathies of the central government, the Katangese Government decided to proclaim the independence of Katanga.1 At that time there was no Katan- gese flag. On July 13 President Kasa Vubu and Prime Minister Lumumba tried to land at Elisabethville airport but they were refused permission to do so. Consequently, they asked United Nations to put an end to the Belgian agression. On July 14 the Security Council of the United Nations adopted a resolution asking the Belgian troops to leave the Congo, and therefore Katanga. Mr. Hammarskjöld, Secretary-General, considered the United Nations forces had to enter Katanga. Mr. Tschombe opposed that interpreta- tion and affirmed that his decision would be executed by force it need be.
