On a dark blue rectangle arced at top and bottom with a yellow 1/8 inch (.32 cm) border, 3 inches (7.82 cm) in height and 2 inches (5.08 cm) in width overall, between a gold eight pointed compass rose surmounted by a small gold disc in sinister chief, a green palm branch bendwise in dexter base; a buff bend bearing a scarlet bendlet couped.

Symbolism
Buff and scarlet are the colors associated with US Army Support organizations. Scarlet is also the color of the Meritorious Unit Commendation which was awarded to the unit for Southwest Asia service. Scarlet is also the color of zeal and courage. The scarlet bar or “red stick” echoes the name of the city of Baton Rouge, home of the Brigade. The compass rose symbolizes leadership, guidance, and the ability to deploy worldwide. The gold disc on the star alludes to the hot sun of Southwest Asia; the palm branch, symbol of victory, also refers to Southwest Asia, where the Brigade saw war service. The dark blue contrasting with the shining compass rose and sun represents day and night, around the clock vigilance, Blue also symbolizes loyalty and steadfastness.

Background
The shoulder sleeve insignia was approved on 7 March 2006. (TIOH Dwg. No. A-1-884)
