Description
On a blue disc edged with a 1/8 inch (.32 cm) white border, 2 1/2 inches (6.35 cm) in diameter overall, a white star within an open garland composed of a branch of oak and a branch of laurel both white, the crossed branches surmounted above their point of intersection and below the star by a wreath of six twists, alternating white and red.

Symbolism
The design is an adaptation of the seal of Texas, the “Lone Star State.”

It was redesignated effective 1 October 2003, for the Texas Army National Guard Element, Joint Force Headquarters and amended to update the description and add a symbolism. (TIOH Dwg. No. A-1-180)
