The BGAD Logo

Here's a good shot of the Depot's logo, as it actually appears at the front gates.

In the foreground we have a depiction of Daniel Boone, apparently. Daniel Boone is a symbol of the pioneer. And what is the literal definition of being a pioneer? Leading the way in exploring unknown territory.

Behind Boone's image we have a backdrop depicting a rocketship in space! The implications of this juxtaposition seem clearly to point to space exploration.... Coincidence? Possibly. But relevant symbolism has been found in Government/Military/NASA-related insignias before.

It's also rather odd that there's a very prominent star on the image of Kentucky, whose purpose you would think would be to denote the location of the Depot, but the star's location isn't even close. Richmond is in the absolute center of the state. Maybe the insignia designer took a drastic liberty with it, since Daniel Boone's figure is obscuring the actual location of the Depot? Why not just design it another way then?? The star seems to be on Lee County (which, according to rumor, is the location of a 1980's CIA psych-op installation which may or may not still exist).

If anyone is able to recognize what, if any, actual specific star background area is shown in the logo, please let us know.
