History and Lore: In religious symbolism, blue signifies truth and is associated with the creative power of God. It has been used by priests at the grave, for it is symbolic of heaven.

In ancient Rome, blue was worn by the public servants, thus marking the beginning of the idea for today's police uniforms.
The expression "true blue" for constancy and fidelity perhaps originated with mariners, who associated the blue sky with freedom from storms.
