Description
A dark blue rectangular shaped shield edged gold arched at top and bottom 3 inches (7.62 cm) in height and 2 inches (5.08 cm) in width overall consisting of a white stylized mountain with five peaks bearing a buff polestar, overall two crossed red bayonets points up fimbriated white.
Symbolism
Buff and red are the colors traditionally used by Support. Our national colors, red, white and blue are also the colors used by the 10th Mountain Division, which the Brigade supports. The snowy mountain refers to the military mountaineering of the Fort Drum area. The polestar with its four major directional points represents the worldwide scope of the Brigade’s logistic support missions of maintenance, supply, medical and transportation operations. The bayonets are from their previous shoulder sleeve insignia when they were the 10th Division Support Command and refer to the Roman numeral “X” for 10.
Background
The shoulder sleeve insignia was originally approved for the 10th Support Brigade on 23 November 2004. It was redesignated for the 10th Sustainment Brigade on 25 April 2006. (TIOH Dwg. No. A-1-867)
