Summary[edit]
| Description |
English: The 3d Cavalry's distinctive regimental insignia, affectionately called the "Bug," due to its shape, was adopted in 1922 and reflects the unit's lineage. The trumpet, or hunter's horn, was the traditional, universal symbol of all mounted infantry regiments in Western armies, and harkens back to the Regiment's original designation. The inscription, "3, Brave Rifles" carries the Regiment's number and motto. The green and yellow colors symbolize the original branch colors used by the Regiment of Mounted Rifles from 1846 to 1861. The gray color of the letters and the numeral "3" simulates the color of steel and refers to the motto, "Blood and Steel." |
