		The design of the arms was a combination, in altered form, of the emblems historically associated with the Irish names of Kennedy and Fitzgerald, the President's paternal and maternal lines.
		Today, the Kennedy arms are still used not only by members of the family, but by the aircraft carrier named in the late President's honor in 1964, christened by his daughter Caroline in 1967, and placed in commission in 1968.
		Some have claimed that the Kennedy arms are usually depicted incorrectly, because the colors in the crest wreath, or torse (the small strip of twisted cloth upon which the crest is mounted) do not match those of the mantling, the slashed cloth hanging from the helmet and framing the shield.

	SWET, SWETE, SWETT COAT OF ARMS
		Oliver's History of Antigua (1899) describes the coat of arms on this memorial as: "Gules, two chevronels between in chief two mullets argent, pierced of the field, and in base a rose of the second" in which "pierced of the field" means the stars on the shield were pierced red.
		The coat of arms of this family was printed in the seventh volume of the New England Historic-Genealogical Register, as though it belonged to the Swett or Sweat family.
		Therefore, although this coat of arms without a crest is not officially recognized by the College of Arms, it represents a family tradition that predates the grant of arms and crest to Guy Swete in 1473.

	Welcome to the Yukon Territory, Canada
		Although there has been discussion in the past about the Yukon becoming Canada's 11th province, it is generally felt that its population base is too sparse for this to occur at present.
		Most of the riverboats were owned by the British-Yukon Navigation co, an arm of the White Pass and Yukon Route, which also operated a narrow-gauge railway from Skagway, Alaska to Whitehorse.
		All Yukon communities except one are accessible by mostly paved roads, but air travel is the only way to reach one remote community in the Far North (Old Crow).
