Distinctive unit insignia The distinctive unit insignia of the U.S. Army Medical Logistics Command was approved by the
Institute of Heraldry in October 2019. According to the Institute of Heraldry, the maroon-and-silver colors coincide with the traditional colors of the
Army Medical Department. A blue disc inside the maroon band alludes to the earth, reflecting the AMLC's global posture. The two
serpents, facing one another, were adapted from the
Army Medical Corps branch insignia. Their tails wrap around the band bearing the AMLC motto, further implying the close connection between the command's logistics duties in preparation, deployment, and sustainment. The torch in the center represents the AMLC's mission to ensure readiness. A single white star, which conveys the organization's status as a 1-star (
brigadier general-led) command, is centered on the insignia. The command's motto is "Prepare, Deploy, Sustain." == See also ==
