WHY GREEN?
In several early American and European watch systems, night watchmen the predecessors to modern security and police carried lanterns while patrolling after dark. One tradition dating back to the 17th century held that watchmen carried lanterns with green glass panels so citizens could easily identify them as members of the watch.
Hundreds of years later, the color green still carries that legacy. Today, many security companies utilize green auxiliary lighting on their vehicles as a visible symbol of protection, presence, and vigilance. Green is also featured on our patch, representing the watch and the long standing tradition of standing guard over people, property, and communities.
