Summary[edit]
|
This military insignia image could be re-created using vector graphics as an SVG file. This has several advantages; see Commons:Media for cleanup for more information. If an SVG form of this image is available, please upload it and afterwards replace this template with
{{vector version available|new image name}}.
It is recommended to name the SVG file “16 FA Rgt DUI.svg”—then the template Vector version available (or Vva) does not need the new image name parameter. |
 | This military insignia image was uploaded in the JPEG format even though it consists of non-photographic data. This information could be stored more efficiently or accurately in the PNG or SVG format. If possible, please upload a PNG or SVG version of this image without compression artifacts, derived from a non-JPEG source (or with existing artifacts removed). After doing so, please tag the JPEG version with {{Superseded|NewImage.ext}} and remove this tag. This tag should not be applied to photographs or scans. If this image is a diagram or other image suitable for vectorisation, please tag this image with {{Convert to SVG}} instead of {{BadJPEG}}. If not suitable for vectorisation, use {{Convert to PNG}}. For more information, see {{BadJPEG}}. |  |
| Description |
English: This file is from a US Government website (http://www.hood.army.mil/4id_3-16fa/Crest.htm).
Also from that website: Design approved February 11, 1921 The dancette fess is for the hills and mountains with which the regiment's history is connected (King's Mountain, North Carolina; Hill 304 near Verdun; Hill 295 north of Septsarges, France; the Landskrone, Rhineland; and Mt. Rainer, Washington). The black is for the battle losses. The three stars are for three major operations of World War I in which the regiment took part. The horse's head indicates a mounted regiment, and the ivy leaf is taken from the shoulder sleeve insignia of the 4th Division to which the regiment was assigned in 1917. |
