36th Field Artillery Unit Crest (No Motto)
The 36th Field Artillery Regiment Distinctive Unit Insignia, sometimes referred to as a unit crest, features a gold-bordered scarlet shield with a gold upward-pointing chevron. Called a “per chevron” division, this configuration signifies that the Regiment has been on the active-duty list more than once.
Constituted on 5 July 1918 as the 36th Field Artillery in the National Army and assigned to the 12th division, the 36th Field Artillery Regiment would not see action during World War I. After demobilization, reconstitution, and a temporary assignment to the 9th Division, the Regiment was broken up in 1943, with its HHB (Headquarters and Headquarters Battery) being redesignated as the HHB, 36th Field Artillery Group (36th Artillery Group after 1958) and its 1st and 2nd Battalions being redesignated as the 36th and 633rd Field Artillery Battalions; the 633rd would go on to be redesignated as the 546th Field Artillery Battalion.
During World War II these various units would take part in an unprecedented twelve campaigns, with three of them involving participating in assault landings; the 36th Field Artillery Group was also honored with a French Croix de Guerre with Palm.
The Regiment was reformed though the reorganization, consolidation, and redesignation of HHB, 36th Artillery Group and the 36th and 546th Field Artillery Battalions as the 36th Field artillery, a parent regiment under the Combat Arms Regimental System, on 30 April 1972; it was reorganized and redesignated in 1987 under the U.S. Army Regimental System. Today, none of the 36th Field Artillery Regiment’s are active and the Regiment is considered inactive.
