(REG-P-001) Morale patch 2023 // Designed by Sailor First Class (S1) Marianne Maxwell, Weapons Engineering Technician, the patch signifies new beginnings for the ship’s adventures. The design incorporates a Trident with the Prairie Bison skull and iconic Regina crown as part of the three prongs. The ship and the waves crashing in the background are an homage to the wartime paint job Regina had carried since 2019
(STJ-P-001) Great Lakes Deployment 2019 mission patch (STJ-P-002) Morale patch: The rich history of our ship and its namesake city of St. John’s, Newfoundland offer up many iconic motifs and strong symbols; as per naval tradition many are included in our morale patch, worn on the right sleeve of the daily uniform. A colorful pallet was chosen in honor of the famous “jelly bean row” of brightly colored houses in downtown St. John’s. Included is symbolism of Newfoundland’s provincial bird (the Atlantic Puffin) and provincial animal (Newfoundland Dog) rising from the ocean which spills from the maw of our ship’s mascot, the Golden Lion. The Puffin holds in its beak a winged dagger symbolizing the bravery exemplified by our slogan “Advancez” or “forward”, while the Newfoundland dog offers in its paw, the “heart of generosity” referencing the HMCS ST JOHN'S reputation for charitable assistance over many years. By combining Canadian heritage with current accomplishment, the design aims to be both intriguing and inspiring, bolstering the pride of our ship‘s company.
