Insignia Description
A Silver metal and enamel device 1 5/32 inches (2.94 cm) in height overall consisting of a shield blazoned: Argent, two bars wavy Azure, overall a quill palewise Tenné fimbriated on the second of the first. Attached below the shield a Silver scroll inscribed "HONOR HERITAGE HISTORY" in Blue letters.

Symbolism
Orange and white are used for the Signal Corps. The microwave functions are symbolized by the two slightly wavy bars, which also represent the Tiber and Po Rivers, thus alluding to the Rome-Arno and Po Valley Campaigns. The pen is a play on the Celtic word "pen" for a mountaintop, from which the name Apennine is believed to have been derived. It also symbolizes communications.

History
The distinctive unit insignia was approved on 25 November 1955.
