The shield is scarlet for Artillery.The Liberty Bell alludes to the Revolutionary War.The five arrows commemorate the Indian War campaign credit of old Company “F”, 4th Artillery.
The broken arrow is indicative of the engagement near Vincennes, Indiana, 1791-11-04, in which all officers and two-thirds of the men of Bradford’s Company, Battalion of Artillery, were killed.The embattled partition line refers to the ramparts of Chapultapec and denotes service during the Mexican War. The star, the insignia of the 12th Corps in which batteries of the Regiment served, is representative of the Civil War.
