Orange and white are colours traditionally associated with the Signal Corps. The four divisions of the shield denote the unit's heritage of installing, operating, and maintaining four area signal centers as part of an Army area signal system. The fret with interlaced flashes symbolise the radio relay and field cable trunk circuits between the area signal centers. The ring alludes to the message center and signal information provided by the Battalion. The counterchanged colours refer to the signal displacement capability and also the circuit patching and switching responsibilities. The Philippine Sun symbolise the Philippine Presidental Unit Citation awarded to the Battalion. The Sea Lion from the Arms of Manila, indicates operations on Luzon during World War II. | Orange and white are colours traditionally associated with the Signal Corps.
