Description
On a rectangular shaped device arched at the top and bottom 2 1/2 inches (6.35 cm) in width and 3 inches (7.62 cm) in height overall, quartered orange and white, a blue lion’s head jessant of two lightning flashes saltirewise one white, one orange, all within a 1/8 inch (.32 cm) blue border.

Symbolism
Orange and white are the colors traditionally associated with the Signal Corps. The lion, a symbol of courage and fierceness, is blue in allusion to the unit’s former airborne designation. The lightning flashes symbolize communications, and their position, saltirewise, implies strength.

Background
The shoulder sleeve insignia was approved on 23 May 1980. It was amended to delete the airborne tab and update the description and symbolism on 11 December 2006. (TIOH Dwg. No. A-1-653)
