The shield is scarlet for Artillery. The Kris commemorates service against the Moros during the Philippine Insurrection, while the ermine is from the arms of Brittany where the Regiment served in France during World War I. The crest shows the Regiment's original character as mountain or pack artillery. | The shield is scarlet for Artillery.
