Distinctive Unit Insignia


Description/Blazon
A gold color metal and enamel device 1 1/8 inches (2.86 cm) in height overall consisting of a dark blue disc encircled by a gold annulet, and upon it a scarlet cinquefoil with a single black ermine spot extending from upper lobe down to the center of the emblem, and attached below a dark blue scroll with the words "SUPPORT TO WIN" in gold letters.

Symbolism
The cinquefoil and ermine spot symbolize the regions of Europe where the unit served during World War II and the cinquefoil's five lobes refer to the campaigns in which the unit participated. The annulet suggests the flexibility and mobility of the unit and its mission to provide continuity by replacement of losses. The ermine spot alludes to the individual and the importance of the individual's contribution to the unit. Dark blue and scarlet are the colors of the Adjutant General's Corps.

Background
The distinctive unit insignia was originally approved for the 360th Personnel and Administration Battalion on 20 Jun 1985. It is redesignated, with description updated, for the 360th Replacement Battalion effective 16 Sep 2001.
