A Gold color metal and enamel device 1 1/8 inches (2.86 cm) in height overall consisting of a shield blazoned: Per fess Gules and Azure on a pile reversed between two piles Or a torteau. Attached below the shield a three segmented Red scroll inscribed "SUPPLY on the dexter segment, "SERVICE" on the center segment and "SUPPORT" on the sinister segment all in Gold color metal letters.
Scarlet is the color used for Support Battalions. The pile is symbolic of support and refers to the basic mission of the organization. The red area silhouetted between the upper two piles and point of the lower pile simulates a red arrowhead and alludes to the shoulder sleeve insignia of the 32d Infantry Brigade of which the organization is a part. Furthermore, the lower pile simulates a mountain and together with the disk resembling a hole refers to Wisconsin's sobriquet, the Badger State. The term was applied to the early lead miners, who, first coming to a new location, dug in the side of a hill and lived under ground much as the badger digs in his burrow.
The distinctive unit insignia was approved on 10 July 1969.
