The Insignia on the Shield is inherited from the 305th Tank Brigade of World War I. In this Brigade served the 17th Tank Battalion (then designated 303rd | |||
Tank Bn.). The Erupring Volcano indicates the Heavy Losses suffered by the Battalion from antitank Mines. The Crest is from the Arms of the French | |||
Province of Picardy, where the Brigade saw all of its action. | |||
