Symbolism
The nickname of the division, "Pathfinder," is represented by the arrow while the figure "8" identifies the division's designation.

The shoulder sleeve insignia was originally approved for the 8th Division on 8 April 1919. The insignia was redesignated for the 8th Infantry Division retroactive to 15 May 1943 and amended to revise the dimensions of the design and to provide a border space for overedge stitching on 27 February 1970.
