To change information
Description
On a shield-shaped embroidered device 2 1/8 inches (5.40 cm) in width and 2 3/4 inches (6.99 cm) in height overall, edged with a 1/8 inch (.32 cm) Yellow border blazoned as follows: Per fess Celeste and Gules, a bridge of three arches Or, issuant from middle arch a pale wavy Azure.

Symbolism
Red and buff are the colors traditionally used by Support units. Light blue represents the sky. The dark blue denotes water. Blue is the color for honor and highlights the unit’s call to duty. The bridge symbolizes strong support; the seven stones on the top of the bridge represent the seven Army values: loyalty, duty, respect, selfless service, honor, integrity and personal courage, paving the way and guiding the unit to success. The two pillars foretell the unit’s future missions of combined and joint operations. The three arches allude to the window of the unit’s past. As the 304th Corps Materiel Management Center, active duty, reserve component and civilians forged a team to provide materiel management for I-Corps, America’s Corps. The river flows in the shape of an “S,” representing the triumvirate missions of sustainment, service and support which govern the task and purpose of the unit. The combined elements form the bridge, the symbol of the ethos of the 304th Sustainment Brigade. It also signifies the unit’s willingness to cross any obstacle; land, water and air to accomplish their mission.

Background
The shoulder sleeve insignia was approved on 6 March 2006. The insignia was amended to correct the symbolism on 17 March 2006.
