On a yellow hexagon 3 1/2 inches (8.89 cm) in height and 2 inches (5.08 cm) in width overall with one point up with a 1/8 inch (.32 cm) green border a black sword between two green chevrons couched.

Symbolism
Green and yellow are the colors traditionally associated with Military Policy organizations. The upright sword symbolizes the unit’s total military readiness. The chevrons simulate arrows which form a narrow aperture through which the sword passes, alluding to the Panama Canal and emphasizing the sword. The chevrons also symbolize support and the unit’s mission within the U.S. Army South.
