"The Chi Rho is an ancient Christogram formed from the first two letters of Christ in Greek, Χριστός. The bolo tie, an enduring symbol of the rugged westward expansion of early America, is joined with this historic emblem of Christ, historically linked with the conquest of Christendom, to proclaim the sovereignty of God over America, the heritage of the West and the Lordship of Jesus Christ. 

For Christ, for America, the Chi Rho Bolo Tie." - Kyle Jezwinski

"According to the historian Eusebius, the Emperor Constantine and his army had an astounding vision prior to the Battle of the Milvian Bridge, in which Constantine faced the usurper emperor Maxentius. Constantine—who was not yet a Christian—and his troops saw a cross of light emblazoned in the sky above the sun, with the words, “By this sign, you shall conquer”—in Latin, In hoc signo vinces.

Constantine was not sure what to make of this vision, but that night, he had a dream in which Jesus instructed him to make a likeness of the symbol and use it as a defense against his enemies. Thereafter, the Emperor made a battle standard composed of a cross—shaped by a crossbeam added to a long spear—and crowned with the Chi Rho.

Constantine won the Battle of the Milvian Bridge and soon after converted to Christianity. He continued to use the Chi Rho as his battle-symbol and on other official items such as coins. Its use quickly spread throughout the empire, and it is now one of our Christianity's most common symbols." - cited from The Catholic Company
