Just a guess, but with the yellow colour in the background,
it could possibly an artillery battalion.

I've done a quick search, but could not find this particular
insignia - there are literally thousands of them.........

Didier I believe it is the Di for the 11th engineering combat regiment. Gary

Hello Gentlemen
Yes at the first time I thought it was the 11th, but it's a black panther
TIOH - Heraldry - 11 Engineer Battalion
this lion's or panther's head is present on lot of crests
I read somewhere that green and yellow color is for MP, right ??
cordially

Or it could be the 69th field artillery brigade I'm leaning more towards this one .just looked at the 57th infantry brigade both the 69th and the 57th are NJ national guard it has to be one of those. Gary
