===Origin/meaning=== | |||
Scarlet and white are the colors used for the Corps of Engineers. The two unicorn heads, symbolic of courage and daring, allude to the unit's service in World War II and Korea, the four indentations of the chief referring to the four campaigns in which the unit participated. The globe and dividers symbolize the Battalion's worldwide engineering aspects and basic mission. Crest None. | |||
The Coat of Arms was approved on 23 July 1968. | |||
