Description

US Army 373rd Military Intelligence Battalion Distinctive Unit Insignia

Description/Blazon A silver metal and enamel device 1 3/16 inches (3.02 cm) in height overall consisting of a silver disc bearing a green laurel wreath interlaced with a diagonally crossed black key, wards up and a yellow lightning flash and in base a red dagger, point up, all upon a silver sun with four straight and four wavy alternating rays, and all enclosed at bottom and sides by a blue tripartite scroll doubled and inscribed "COLLECT SUPPORT DEFEND" in silver letters.

Symbolism Oriental blue and silver gray/silver are the colors traditionally associated with Military Intelligence. The disc, symbolizing the earth, recalls the worldwide mission of Military Intelligence; the sunburst behind it is adapted from the Military Intelligence branch insignia. The wreath stands for honor, the key for security and the lightning flash for speed. The dagger recalls the danger of the Military Intelligence mission.

Background The distinctive unit insignia was approved on 18 August 1989.
