black shield in nigerian coat of arm represent
Coat of arms of Nigeria The coat of arms of Nigeria consists of a black shield with a wavy white pall, symbolizing the meeting of the Niger and Benue Rivers at Lokoja. The black shield represents Nigeria's fertile soil, while the two supporting horses or chargers on each side represent dignity. The eagle represents strength, while the green and white bands on the top of the shield represent the rich soil.[1]
Shoulder sleeve insignia Shoulder sleeve insignia receive their name from the fact that they are most commonly worn on the upper left shoulders of the Army Combat Uniform (ACU); before October 2015[1] they were worn all U.S. Army uniforms. However, they can be placed on other locations, notably on the side of a helmet. Shoulder sleeve insignia worn on the upper right shoulders on Army uniforms denote former wartime service. These "combat patches" are worn on the ACU but are not worn on the Army Service Uniform. Instead a 2Â inch metal replica is worn on the right breast pocket and is officially known as the Combat Service Identification Badge (CSIB).
