The New Mexico Wing Shield Emblem is a modern rendering of our legacy Disk emblem updated to conform to current USAF/ CAP guidance specifying Shield emblems for Group and above level organizations.
The NMWG Shield emblem consists of the official symbol and colors of New Mexico, a Red (Pantone 200 C) New Mexico Zia symbol on Golden (Pantone Yellow 012 C) shield. "Vigilant Wings", derived from current style CAP wings raised 20 degrees from the horizon forming a shallow "V" shape with a full color classic CAP roundel at center replace the "droopy wings" that were the standard at the time the Disk emblem was designed.
"Vigilant Wings" represent the organization’s various aerospace/ aviation related themes, activities and missions; while its "V" shape evokes our motto "Semper Vigilans" and Volunteerism.
