Orange and White are the colours of the Signal Corps. The Sea-lion and the eight rays of the sun are taken from the Seal of the Perseident of the Philippines; they commemorate the action for which the Battalion recieved the Philippine Presidential Unit Citation and also refer to participation in four Campaigns in the Philippines during World War II. The Torch symbolises knowledge and the Lightning Flashes symbolises Speed. The Blue disc symbolises Lake Ontario, which is in the vicinity of the Battalion's previous home area in the State of New York. The Crest is that of the Army Reserve. The Distinctive Unit Insignia was approved on 6 January 1969 and the Coat of Arms on 16 October 2007. | Orange and White are the colours of the Signal Corps.
