===Origin/meaning=== | |||
The three gold piles charged with light blue stars allude to infantry and are a canting reference to the 33rd Infantry Brigade Combat Team. The Three stars also symbolises the three missions of the Battalion: to prepare subordinate units for their mission, ensure their force protection and to proved administrative and sustainment support. The Coat of Arms and Distinctive Unit Inisgnia, was both approved on 1 June 2007. | |||
