1889 Support Group Patch. US Army

To change information
Description
An arrowhead shaped device 3 inches (7.62 cm) in height and 2 inches (5.08 cm) in width overall, on a blue field, two swords form an inverted red pile, throughout a buff buffalo’s skull, all enclosed by a 1/8 inch (.32 cm) buff border.

Symbolism
The arrowhead and buffalo skull recalls Montana’s Native American heritage. The buff border and scarlet interior are the Support branch colors. The two swords of Thomas Meagher raise the nation’s colors, scarlet and blue, alluding to his famous rally cry. The inverted red pile creates a smoother, sharper inner arrowhead symbolizing the determination of the Group.

Background
The shoulder sleeve insignia was approved on 24 February 2012. (TIOH Dwg. No. A-1-1068)
