Subject: Latin help
OK, I have looked and looked and
can’t seem to figure this out. I know it will be appallingly easy for
those folks out there who actually took Latin, but please take pity on me and
help anyway.
I am trying to translate the motto
on the insignia for Mount Sinai’s affiliated hospital unit in World War II,
the Third
General Hospital. The words are “Deo
et Gladio”. I have my guess on what I think it means, but since I am
using this in a public display, I would actually like to be
correct.
Any help would be
appreciated!
