THE SHIELD Dark blue and gold are the colors of the Navy. The scarlet cross, edged in gold, represents Richard De Wert ' s service as a Hospitalman with U.S. Marine Corps. The anchor and globe are adapted from the marine corps emblem, and also symbolize the world-wide mission of the ship. The taeguk superimposed thereon denotes De Wert ' s service in Korea, where he gave his life. THE CREST The crest commemorates Richard De Wert ' s conspicuous gallantry, for which he was awarded the Medal of Honor, represented by the reversed light blue star. The four rays, for hope, represent the four times De Wert courageously exposed himself to enemy fire to save his wounded shipmates. The small stars represent valor; the sprigs of oak, strength. The ship ' s motto Daring, Dauntless, Defiant expresses the courageous sacrifice of De Wert, and serves as an inspiration to the men who man the warship named in his honor.
