Special Forces Crest
The Special Forces crest insignia was adopted in 1960 and approved as the Special Forces regimental designator in 1984. Its design reflects both the lineage and mission of Special Forces.
In 1890, the crossed arrows were officially prescribed as uniform insignia for the U.S. Army Indian Scouts who served in the American west from 1860 through 1939. In 1942, during World War II, a joint U.S./Canadian special operations unit was established to conduct operations behind enemy lines. Members of this First Special Service Force wore the historic crossed arrows as their branch insignia.
In the current Special Forces crest, the intersecting dagger represents the V-42 dagger issued to each member of the force. The encircling scroll which arches at the base bears the Special Forces motto, "DE OPPRESSO LIBER" which is translated from Latin as "To Free the Oppressed."

Chapter XXI Education Grant Program
Chapter XXI has created a program to provide limited financial aid to direct dependents of current active members, in good standing, who are attending accredited educational institutions. The Board of Directors has formed the Education Grant Committee which has finalized the Grant process, will oversee the deployment of the program, and manage the application and awarding process.
Attached to this Newsletter are two documents: 1) an Overview of the Education Grant Program and 2) a Blank Application form. All active Chapter members, in good standing, are encouraged to forward the application to their descendants who meet the Program requirements. After the applicant completes their portion of the form, it is then returned to their sponsor who would then complete the sponsor endorsement section. Please note that Chapter members are required to complete their portion of the application and forward it to the Chapter no later than the stated deadline, 31 May 2024. Completed applications should be mailed to: Philip Devon, Treasurer, SFA Chapter 21, 4313 North Course LN, Avon Park, FL 33825.
