Summary

[edit]
Description
English: U.S. Army's Security Force Assistance Brigades shoulder sleeve insignia (SSI)

SSI design: The shoulder sleeve is a shield with a sword, spearhead and stars. The Tab will have the word "ADVISOR" on it. The advisor tab is a unit tab, not a skill tab. The specialized advisor mission is the reason for the tab. The shape of the shield and sword are modeled after the Military Assistance Command-Vietnam (MAC-V) insignia to convey a similar mission and heritage. The arrowhead shape alludes to leadership and direction, as well as rapid deployability. The sword conveys force, whether it be offense, defense or assistance. The thirteen stars reflect the "Glory" crest in the coat of arms of the United and symbolize the thirteen original states and the Army Mission patch worn by Military Assistance Advisory Groups. The colors red and blue denote security and authority. The color white highlights the uniqueness of the brigades and their specialized missions. The color gold exemplifies excellence and expertise.
