Description
A shield-shaped embroidered item blazoned as follows: Per bend sinister Or and Teal, a pale Gules, overall two stylized demi-Hawaiian spears in saltire Sable, points upward; all within a 1/8 inch (.32 cm) Black border. The overall dimensions are 3 1/2 inches (8.89 cm) in height and 2 3/4 inches (6.99 cm) in width.
Symbolism
Teal blue and yellow are the colors traditionally associated with Branch Immaterial units. The stylized crossed Hawaiian spears signify the influence of the Hawaiian culture on the unit and its location; also representing the cooperation and teamwork of the subordinate units, with their unique capabilities, during present and future operations and the warrior spirit. The eight lightning bolts on the spear represent the eight islands of the State. The red pale symbolizes unit strength and direction, alluding to the modular structural competencies which allows for the command and control of the following branches - Engineer, Military Police, Chemical, Signal, and a Brigade Support Battalion - that comprise the 303d Maneuver Enhancement Brigade.
Background
The shoulder sleeve insignia was approved on 20 October 2010. (TIOH Dwg. No. A-1-1039)
