Kentucky State Area Command (STARC)
The two clasped hands are from the crest for Army National Guard units of the Commonwealth of Kentucky, known as the Bluegrass State. The hands, symbolizing the state motto, "United We Stand, Divided We Fall," additionally refer to the state's courageous fighting forces united for victory. The blue background is from the state flag. The fifteen stars in staggered rows of three stars each refer to Kentucky, the fifteenth state admitted to the Union, and a historic arrangement of the stars on the 1795 national flag of the U.S.
