Broad Arrow n.
The pheon (a bearing
representing the head of a Broad Arrow or javelin, with long barbs which
are engrailed on the inner edge) was, like the modern mace, carried
before royalty by a sergeant-at-arms. It became a royal mark, and was
used in Great Britain to denote crown property, being termed the
"Broad R,"or "Broad Arrow." One could suppose that
the Broad Arrow is one of the oldest "trademarks" still in use
for its original purpose. The Broad Arrow was chosen as the logo for the
Military Watch Resource due to it's long standing use as the official
mark designating British Government issued property.
"No leader should put
troops into the field merely to gratify his own spleen; no leader should
fight a battle simply out of pique. But a kingdom that has once been
destroyed can never come again into being; nor can the dead ever be
brought back to life. Hence the enlightened leader is heedful, and the
good leader full of caution."
