This month’s patch pays homage to the vintage Civil Defense Corps logo, a symbol of America's dedication to preparedness during World War II and the Cold War. The logo's white triangle within a blue circle, featuring the red "CD" initials, represented the Civil Defense Corps’ mission to protect communities from potential threats. As students of preparedness, this modern recreation serves as a reminder of the importance of being ready for anything.

The Civil Defense Corps mobilized millions of volunteers to serve in roles such as air raid wardens, auxiliary firefighters, and medical personnel. Their iconic emblem symbolized the three-step Civil Defense philosophy—Prepare, Protect, and Recover—emphasizing a comprehensive approach to emergency management. By honoring this legacy, we celebrate the enduring value of community readiness in the face of adversity.
