Blazon

Gules, a pile barry wavy of ten argent and azure, charged with a warrior in tilting armour mounted on a sea-horse sable, trappings gules, and holding with the dexter hand a lance at the rest from which flies a pennant argent bearing a maple leaf gules.
(Glossary of Heraldic Terms)

Significance

The pile comes from the common symbol of the Bay class minesweepers, representing the bay of the name. The knight, appropriately riding a "sea horse" represents the resolute warrior, his pennon declaring Canada.

Remarks

Resolute was a Bay class minesweeper. She was commissioned in September 1954, and wore pennant 154 until she was paid off in February 1964.

Colours
