Complete the sentence about Coat of arms of the Philippines with the correct year: The current design pursuant to Commonwealth Act No. 731 was approved by the Congress of the Philippines on July 3, ______.

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: B. 1946

The coat of arms of the Philippines was reworked after the Second World War, when President Sergio Osmeña reactivated the Philippine Heraldic Committee. The current design under Commonwealth Act No. 731 was approved by Congress on July 3, 1946, and it was designed by Captain Galo B. Ocampo. The year 1936 is before the war, so it cannot be the date of a post-war design.
