Distinctive Unit Insignia: The color crimson is used for maintenance, the black and yellow for tank destroyers; they have been combined to indicate the former designations of the organization. The wildcat's head represents the shoulder sleeve insignia of the tank destroyer forces; the fleur-de-lis symbolizes European service and represents the organization's five battle honors - Normandy, Northern France, Rhineland, Central Europe, and Ardennes-Alsace during World War II. The stylized wrenches allude to the unit's previous mission of maintenance, while the blue circular scroll and three white stars are suggested by the State flag of Tennessee. | Distinctive Unit Insignia: The color crimson is used for maintenance, the black and yellow for tank destroyers; they have been combined to indicate the former designations of the organization.
