DescriptionA rectangular, cream-colored pin with decorative gold border around its sides and the words "Kadeti Sv. Jiři", or "Cadets of St. George", printed in black. A small cross surrounded by the letters "ZČKJ", which stands for "Western Bohemian Catholic Union", lie in the pin's center. Three chain links hang down from either side of its bottom, attaching a smaller rectangular piece of metal that is also cream-colored and reads "ČLEN", which means "Member".

These two pieces hang over the top half of a double-sided ribbon with gold fringe across its bottom. One side is brick red with silver lettering that reads "Spolek Kadetu Sv. Jiři ČÍSLO 67 Z.Č.K.J. Cedar Rapids, Iowa". The back side is black with identical silver lettering.On View
