Description
On a red disc 2 1/4 inches (5.72 cm) in diameter a black “hour glass” of two pyramids point to point whose bases are 1 inch (2.54 cm) in width, all within a 1/8 inch (.32 cm) Army green border.
Symbolism
The outline of the hourglass alludes to the numerical designation of the division showing two “7’s” inverted, one upright.
