Origin/meaning

The Crest is that for Regiments and Separate Battalions of the Indiana Army National Guard. The shield is blue for Infantry, the original unit designation. The white fess charged with the Roman sword, cactus, and fleur-de-lis represents the Spanish-American War, Mexican Border, and World War I service, respectively.

The arms were approved on 1 February, 1932.
