US ARMY DENTAL ACTIVITY BREMERHAVEN
Official blazon
A silver color metal and enamel device 1 1/8 inches (2.86cm) in height overall consisting of a horizontal silver key, the bow charged with a red cross, crossed by a vertical blue anchor and all intertwined with a maroon scroll bearing the motto "KEY TO HEALTH" in silver letters all on a silver starburst.
Origin/meaning
Maroon and white are the colors traditionally associated with the Medical units. The key has been adapted from the coat of arms of the city of Bremerhaven. The red cross on the bow of the key defines the unit's mission of medical and dental service. The key also accentuates the unit's motto "KEY TO HEALTH" and emphasizes the important preventative aspects of a DENTAC's activities. The anchor represents the unit's location in Bremerhaven, a major port city in Germany. The starburst is in reference to outstanding quality of care and service.
The Distinctive Unit Insignia was approved on 10 February 1981.
