Artwork Description ----

The Florida 50 Goldback presents the virtue “Amor Patriae” (Love of Country) through the
depiction of a Women’s Airforce Service Pilot (WASP). The young pilot flies a P-51 Mustang
over Hendricks Army Airfield, symbolizing bravery and dedication. Sunlight highlights her steady grip on the controls, a testament to the enduring principle, "Be watchful, stand firm."

Her uniform displays insignias for the WASP, U.S. Army Corps, Air Transport Command, and the American flag. These emblems commemorate the critical role of women during WWII. Dedicated to Florida’s 1.5 million veterans, this piece is a tribute to those who have strengthened the nation in both war and peace.
