below. There is a small gray shield hanging from the branches of the
tree, with three blue figures on that small shield. The tree stands on
a base of gray and black intertwined bars, referred to as a wreath in
heraldic terms. Below the tree is a larger shield, with a black
background, and with three gray, diagonal stripes across it; these
diagonal stripes are referred to as bends in heraldic terms. There are
three gold leaves in line, end-to-end, down the middle of the center
stripe (or bend), with green veins in the leaves. Note that the colors
