A gold colored metal and enamel device 1 1/4 inches (3.18 cm) in height consisting of a gold eagle bearing on each extended and inverted wing a blue star and grasping in its right foot a black bomb, the eagle standing on a scarlet scroll inscribed “HONOR GUIDES OUR POWER” in gold letters, the ends of the scroll terminating at the eagle’s wings. | |||

The colors scarlet and gold are for Artillery. The eagle stands for the United States; the bomb for Artillery missile warhead support. The two stars refer to the Group’s two-part mission, i.e., the command of assigned United States Army warhead support organizations and the furnishing of related advice to its host nation. | |||
The Distinctive Unit Insignia was approved on 10 January 1967. | |||
