CREST: The demi-burst signifies the splendid achievement of Franklin D. Roosevelt’s Presidency, to bring the United States out of domestic crisis and through world-wide conflict. The ship’s wheel recalls his appointment in 1913 as Assistant Secretary of the Navy. It denotes also his success in guiding America through the difficult years of his Presidential terms. The lozenge, traditionally a feminine heraldic symbol, is a reference to his wife, Eleanor Roosevelt, who assisted him politically and became a force in her own right. The sides of the lozenge represent his four elections to the Presidency. The rose, state flower of New York, recalls his governorship of that state and is a canting reference to his family name. Scarlet denotes courage and sacrifice, gold indicates excellence. | CREST: The demi-burst signifies the splendid achievement of Franklin D.
