Origin/meaning

Shoulder Sleeve Insignia: Red and black are the school colors. The scale of justice symbolizes equality and recalls the achievements of the school’s namesake, Abraham Lincoln. The scale also reminds the cadets of their school motto “ABE AND I” and to model their ideals after the great emancipator.

Shoulder Loop Insignia: The wheel reflects the school’s location in the “motor city.” The wheel denotes the continuous aspects of learning and marks the cadets’ dedication to school, community, and country. The fleur-de-lis honors the area history.

The Shoulder Sleeve Insignia was approved 26 November 1996.
