Air Force Cadet Wing Squadron 11

Air Force Cadet Wing Squadron 11

A cadet squadron at the United States Air Force Academy in Colorado Springs, Colorado, RebEleven is the first squadron in Cadet Group Two.

The squadron's patch consists of a white equilateral triangle, bordered in red, superimposed on a circular blue field. A red Arabic numeral "11" sits on silver prop and wings at the center. ["Squadron Insignia of the United States Air Force Academy", P. Michael Sheridan, Library of Congress Catalog Number: 90-62369]

The triangle superimposed upon the circle is borrowed from the 6th Bomb Wing, the original squadron sponsor. The triangle represents the Greek letter delta to remind all wearers that each new group of fourth classmen was assigned to Delta Squadron during basic cadet training. The three segments of the circle represent academics, athletics and military training. The silver prop and wings symbolize the cadet wing, while the large "11" identified the 11th Cadet Squadron. The emblem bears the squadron's red and white colors; the gold, blue, silver and red class colors; and the cadet wing's blue and silver colors.
