Soldiers of God Decorations

Thematic decorations are easy this year. Grab yourself some blank overhead transparencies and a wet-erase marker, trace some pictures of swords and shields and so forth on there, stick it on the overhead projector, thumbtack some posterboard up on a bulletin board, project the soldier stuff onto there, and pencil in the outline. Then you get your volunteers together and paint them all in, and when they're dry you go over the outlines with black permanent marker. When VBS rolls around, you cut them out and sticky-tack them on the walls, and Bob is your uncle. So, some suitable soldier-gear images? Yeah... The Soldiers of God logo (preview shown at right) is available upon request. (See SVG documents.) There are also some suitable public domain images available from the Open Clip Art Library. These represent various time periods, but you can pick and choose...

• round shield and broadsword
• round shield and crossed spears
• Roman shield and longsword
• suit of armor: front, back
• Elizabethan soldier
• WWI silhouette
• castle tower
• M1 Abrams main battle tank
• sword (proper)
