Ever wonder of the origin of the Collinwood High School symbol seen above?

Did you know that each Army JROTC Unit is required to design its own “shoulder sleeve insignia,” and that this insignia must be approved by The Institute of Heraldry (TIOH)?

In 1995 Major Jenks and a group of cadets submitted this patch to The Institute of Heraldry and it was approved for wear on the Green Army JROTC left sleeve. There is a subdued version that is to be worn on the field or ACU uniform that the cadets wear at their summer leadership camp.
