Description

206th Military Intelligence Battalion Coat of Arms

Description/Blazon Shield Per chevron enarched reversed Sable and Celeste, nine rays radiating from honor point Argent; in base a lion's head erased Argent charged with two bars Gules. Crest None. Motto COLLECTION FOR DEFENSE.

Symbolism Shield The white concentric rays represent light or knowledge gathered to a central point; they refer to the battalion's mission of collecting strategic information. The white and scarlet lion on the blue background is taken from the coat of arms of Hesse, Germany, where the unit was activated. The head only of the lion is used because it is a symbol of intelligence and reason. The color of the background, oriental blue, also refers to Military Intelligence. Crest None.

Background The coat of arms was originally approved for the 18th Military Intelligence Battalion on 7 May 1993. It was redesignated for the 206th Military Intelligence Battalion on 21 October 1996.
