Svea Trängregemente Vapen (Sweden) Hoodie - Design Description
This hoodie prominently displays the heraldic emblem of Svea Trängregemente, also known as the Royal Svea Logistic Regiment (T 1), a distinguished unit of the Swedish Army active from 1891 to 1997. The artwork is a faithful representation of the regiment's official coat of arms, approved in 1978.
The Central Emblem: Provincial Griffin
At the heart of the design is the provincial badge of Östergötland, the region where the regiment was stationed. This is represented by a powerful griffin, a mythical creature with the body of a lion and the head and wings of an eagle. The griffin, rendered in gold (or), has a dragon wing and tail, demonstrating its association with the province. The griffin is armed and langued azure, indicating its claws and tongue are in blue.
Support and Logistics: The Cart Wheel and Swords
The shield bearing the griffin is strategically positioned above a symbolic cart wheel. The cart wheel has four spokes, and serves as a direct reference to the regiment's logistical responsibilities and support capabilities. The wheel is depicted in silver (argent), along with the two swords that are crossed below it in a traditional saltire arrangement. The crossed swords represent the regiment's role in combat support and overall military prowess.
Overall Meaning and Significance
The design, as a whole, embodies the Svea Trängregemente's legacy. The griffin signifies strength and vigilance, qualities associated with military service. The cart wheel and crossed swords underscore the regiment's commitment to logistical support, vital for the operational effectiveness of any military unit.
