Description/Blazon
A shield blazoned: Azure, a fess rompu debased argent, a pile or, semé-de-lis of the first, with point in break of fess, charged with the shoulder sleeve insignia of the 93d Division proper (a pellet charged with a French trench helmet, horizon blue, outlined in gold); in chief, the pile superimposed upon a Roman sword palewise, point to base; in dexter and sinister, a prickly pear cactus, all or. Attached above the shield on a wreath upon a grassy field, the blockhouse of old Fort Dearborn, all or. Attached below and to the sides of the shield, a gold scroll inscribed "ONE COUNTRY—ONE FLAG" in black letters.
Symbolism
The blue shield represents Infantry. The white fess rompu (broken) signifies the Hindenburg Line, while the gold pile (wedge) represents the 370th Infantry's success in breaching it. The semé-de-lis pattern on the pile commemorates the Oise-Aisne Operation in France, whose arms are a blue field with gold fleurs-de-lis, with the tinctures on the wedge reversed to avoid blue on blue. The pellet with the French trench helmet represents the 93d Division's shoulder sleeve insignia, highlighting the 370th Infantry's service as part of this division during World War I. The gold Roman sword, derived from the Spanish War medal, denotes non-combat duty, and the cactus symbolizes service on the Mexican Border.
Background
The distinctive unit insignia was originally approved for the 8th Infantry Regiment on 9 November 1925. It was redesignated for the 184th Field Artillery Regiment on 28 December 1940, and for the 184th Field Artillery Battalion on 6 April 1950. The insignia was redesignated for the 178th Infantry Regiment on 13 June 1961.
