Silver gray and oriental blue are the colors used for Military Intelligence units. The divisions of the shield are symbolic of weather and terrain with the scarlet sword representing the enemy. The unit's deployment overseas is symbolized by the wavy blue section and the black area in base refers to the steep, mountainous terrain of Korea where several elements served during the Korean War. The lightning flash overall signifies the seeking, gathering and dissemination of information relative to the areas of weather, terrain and the enemy and further denotes the constant vigilance which is inherent in the mission of Military Intelligence. | Silver gray and oriental blue are the colors used for Military Intelligence units.
