Yup, you are correct. When Emperor Palpatine, I mean Senator Palpatine,
dissolved the Galactic Senate and made himself emperor(in Episode III) he
basically kept a lot of things including the wedgie design of star fighters
and capital ships and the insignia which *I think* was used by the jedi's
symbol (which would sense since it is on the Jedi Starfighter).
Look here: http://www.starwars.com/databank/starship/delta7/index_movie.html
Note on the wing the symbol, but it is different than the Galactic Empire's
symbol, which you can see more closely on the left side of the screen.
Just my humble opinion

But out of what I have seen something has stuck out at me. Maybe this has been discussed (...) (23 years ago, 6-Dec-01, to lugnet.starwars)
