The Daedalian Seal

The seal of the Order of Daedalians, depicted to the left, is elliptical in form, the upper half being heavily "feathered" to indicate the large number of pilots who flew in the Armed Forces of the United States during World War I, and the lower half being thinly "feathered" to suggest how the hazards of their calling and the attrition of years gradually lessened the number. The words "Volabamus" (we flew) and "Volamus" (we fly) were selected as the motto of the Order. The seal is gold and dark green in color, representing the colors of the Order.
