I very much enjoyed this dynamic design, which strongly says "Puerto Rico" (actually "San Juan," but that’s another story).

It says San Juan because all National Guard units from the same state (or, in this case, commonwealth) have the same crest.  In the case of Puerto Rico, it is the lamb of St. John the Baptist lying on the closed book, as in the arms of the commonwealth itself.

I also think Daniel means the Bastion which clearly reminds one of the fortifications in San Juan.

Nope.  I’m aluding to the fact that the island is really called "San Juan" and the city "Puerto Rico" (the name should give one a hint of this) and then, for some inexplicable reason, they got confused and "switched".  I shouldn’t have been so obscure in my allusion.

I seem to recall that the confusion was caused by a map maker whose work was copied and eventually became accepted by all.
