The Canton shows the Coat of Arms of the 4th Field Artillery Regiment from which the 15th was formed in 1917. The Waves alludes to the Rivers Aisne, Marne, Meuse and the Rhine which the Regiment crossed during its World War I operations. During the War the Regiment formed part of the Second Division whose Shoulder Sleeve insignia can be seen in the Crest (today the divisional insignia is shield shaped). The French 75 mm Feild Gun was used by the Regiment during World War I. | |||
