The Royal Coat of Arms

A tent in the British camp bears the royal coat of arms, with the motto “Dieu et mon droit” — “God and my right.” Ten years earlier, American colonists would have found the motto and seal as inspiring as these soldiers. Even now, a large minority of North Carolinians remained loyal to the king and to Britain.
