English: Description/Blazon
A gold color metal and enamel device 1 3/16 inches (3.02 cm) in height overall consisting of a green oriental dragon's head grasping in its mouth a stalk of gold bamboo fired a red flame at both ends and supporting an arched black scroll bearing the inscription "PROVEN IN BATTLE" in gold letters. Symbolism Gold and green are the colors used for the Military Police. The dragon, a fierce adversary, is the heraldic symbol for defender of the lawful leader, and denotes Vietnam, where the unit was activated. The black scroll represents law, jurisdiction and jurisprudence, and the flames allude to the unit's many combat engagements. Background The distinctive unit insignia was originally approved for the 89th Military Police Group on 4 October 1968. It was redesignated for the 89th Military Police Brigade on 20 October 1981. |
