===Origin/meaning===
The service of the former organization, the 193d Antiaircraft Artillery Battalion, is indicated by the white shield which represents Infantry. The eleven mullets represent the battles and campaigns in which the organization served during the Civil War, and the scarlet fleur-de-lis is for World War I service.


The Coat of Arms and Distinctive Unit Insignia was originally approved for the 945th Antiaircraft Artillery Automatic Weapons Battalion, on 25 August 1954. They was cancelled on 26 July 1956. They was reinstated and redesignated for the 193d Antiaircraft Artillery Battalion on 19 July 1957. They was cancelled on 15 August 1961. The insignia was reinstated and redesignated with blazon and symbolism revised for the 193d Regiment on 19 June 1997.
