      The No. 12 Squadron  Crest shows  a water  buffalo's
      head in front of two crossed boomerangs.  This
      design was chosen for the Squadron  because  it was
      the first RAAF unit based in the Northern  Territory.
      The Squadron motto is "Erramus et lmpugnamus"
      (We roam and we charge).
