THE HERALDIC SIGNIFICANCE OF THE EMBLEM
In the middle of the sealing field there is a blue
shield with two crossed golden swords pointing downwards. The shield is
stamped by a red-beaked, golden eagle, carrying a cross. The tenants
(supporters) of the shield are two golden lions with red tongue and
claws.
The motto written in white letters on a red scarf has the words 

The blue shield evokes the clear sky and the
universal aspiration to freedom. Its shape recalls the shields of the
medieval royal guards (the trabant guards).
The two crossed swords represent the protection and
guard prerogatives of the institution. Their pointing downwards
emphasizes the fact that the Protection and Guard Service has defensive
prerogatives within the field of national safety.
The cross-carrying eagle, the central element on
Romania’s coat of arms, emphasizes the Latin origin of the
Romanian people, being taken over from the Romanian spiritual patrimony.
The cross which the eagle is carrying in its beak
attests the fact that we are Christians, while the
“cross-of-salvation” shape evokes the sacrifice capacity of
our military.
The two lions signify power, vigilance, generosity
and nobility. The lions represented as supporters are a heraldic
element which appears on the seal of Michael the Brave, having been a
symbol of national unity ever since the seventeenth century.
The motto makes the message of the composition whole,
emphasizing the essence of our profession: faith and fidelity towards
the fundamental institutions of the Romanian state.
