The colour of the facing of the old Dragoon Regiment was Orange, hence the Tenné Field. The Dragoon Insignia was a Eight-pointed Star, here two are used to indicate the Regiment's Number. The Main Motive indicates the charge of Captain May's Squadron against the Mexican Artillery at Resaca del Palma during the US-Mexican War 1846-1847. | The colour of the facing of the old Dragoon Regiment was Orange, hence the Tenné Field.
