Shield
White and red are the colors of the Engineers. The embattled bend and wavy partition line symbolize the repair and construction of roads and bridges to facilitate the movement of troops in combat. The caltrap (a defensive implement of medieval times which was usually strewn upon the ground in front of horse troops to impede their advance) represents the important mission of minelaying and minesweeping.

The crest is that of the United States Army Reserve.
The coat of arms was approved on 4 December 1964.
