I guess I should explain the term "Ich Dien" before I use it all over the place. The phrase "Ich Dien" is archaic German for "I serve". (In modern German it would be something like "Ich Diene" although I am no expert in Germanic languages). The motto and symbol, which is three white feathers, represents both Wales and the Prince of Wales. Since the 23rd is a Royal Welch unit, it too uses "Ich Dien" as motto and three white feathers as symbol.
