The significance of the design starts with the sky blue background, within the triangle yellow border, where the Strike Group aircraft fly so boldly. The banner “IN MUNDO OPTIMUM” is a Spanish quote, meaning The Best in the World. The earth, with the view primarily of the Pacific Ocean, symbolizes both the Navy’s global and sea dominance. The numeric three coupled with the trident and two stars symbolize Carrier Strike Group THREE embracing King Neptune’s golden trident of supremacy reaching for the stars.
