Description/Blazon

A shield blazoned: Azure, a fess wavy gules fimbriated argent, surmounting in chief the shell-torn church steeple at St. Etienne, France, of the third. Above the shield, on a wreath argent and azure, a mullet argent encircled by a garland of oak and olive proper. Attached below and to the sides of the shield, a blue scroll inscribed "I'LL FACE YOU" in silver letters.

Symbolism

The shield is blue for Infantry. The wavy fess represents the Aisne River, where the Regiment achieved notable success during World War I, and the Red River, which divides Texas and Oklahoma, the states from which the units of the 142d Infantry, Texas Army National Guard (the 7th Texas and Machine Gun Company), were drawn. The church steeple of St. Etienne, France, signifies the sector where the Regiment first saw combat.

Background

The distinctive unit insignia was approved on 27 June 1928 and was amended to include the crest of the Texas Army National Guard on 22 January 1969.
