White Sands National Park Pin – Manhattan Project reflects the scientific history of southern New Mexico and the nearby Trinity Site. The Trinity test occurred on July 16, 1945 at the Alamogordo Bombing Range. Today that location lies within White Sands Missile Range, not inside the national park. This enameled metal pin reproduces the historic insignia worn by military personnel who worked on the Manhattan Project.
The design uses clear symbols tied to the project’s history. A white cloud and lightning bolt form a question mark against a blue background to suggest the unknown results of the test. The bolt splits a yellow atom to represent atomic fission. The red, white, and blue star references the Army Service Forces that oversaw the program. A rubber stud clutch keeps the pin securely attached to jackets, hats, or bags.
- Official park pin approved by the National Park Service for White Sands National Park
- Rubber stud clutch attachment securely affixes the pin to any fabric surface
- Size: 15/16" x 1 1/8"
