A gold color metal and enamel device 1 3/16 inches (3.02 cm) in width overall consisting of an octagonal rectangle divided from top right to bottom left by a gold lightning flash, a panther's head delineated in gold on scarlet above the flash, two gold cavalry sabers saltirewise on white below it; attached below the device a black semi-circular motto scroll inscribed "PERDITOR-ORIS" in gold letters.
Scarlet and white represent Cavalry. Black recalls World War II associations with the Eighth Tank Destroyer Group from which the unit was formed. The panther refers also to this Group, one of whose symbols was the panther. The lightning flash denotes mobility and effectiveness, the characteristics of the combined forces with which the Brigade cooperates. The eight-sided field recalls again the Eighth Tank Destroyer Group. The sabers are traditionally associated with Cavalry actions. Gold signifies excellence. The motto translates to "Destroyer."
The distinctive unit insignia was approved on 14 November 2008.
