To change information
Description
On a yellow disc 2 1/2 inches (6.35 cm) in diameter, eight orange rays behind a blue snow-capped mountain peak, all inset 1/8 inch (.32 cm).

Symbolism
The design elements were taken from the Great Seal of the State of Montana. The mountain peaks allude to “Montana” a Spanish word for mountain.

It was redesignated effective 1 October 2003, for the Montana Army National Guard Element, Joint Forces Headquarters and amended to update the description and add a symbolism. (TIOH Dwg.
