Description

US Army 14th Military Intelligence Battalion Coat of Arms

Description/Blazon

Shield

Per bend dove-tailed Argent and Azure, two whelk shells counterchanged.

Crest

None.

Motto

SUPPORT BY INTELLIGENCE.

Symbolism

Shield

The two shells and the dove-tailed partition line stand for the three general functions of a Military Intelligence unit, i.e., the collection, processing and dissemination of information. The whelk shells, which receive and transmit sound waves and vibrations, refer to the collection and dissemination of information; the fitting together of the two parts of the shield by means of the dove-tailed line, refers to the process of interpreting and collating separate pieces of information to form an integrated whole. Blue and silver are the colors used for the Military Intelligence Corps. The counterchanging of the colors of the shells alludes to the counterintelligence function of the unit.

Crest

None.

Background

The coat of arms was approved on 6 July 1966.
