[edit] Star of the Order of the Garter

The badge depicted here is not one based on the US style 'maltese' cross fire badges. In fact you will find the badge represents an historical link to the South Australian Metropolitan Fire Brigade badge. This was heavily influenced by the cap stars of the British (and Australian) military. The star is a stylised version of the Star of the order of the Garter. An award of the British sovereign. I doubt very much that the founders of the CFS/EFS would have viewed the American fire department badges. Ozdaren 16:37, 24 June 2006 (UTC)
