Shield: Or, on a pale embattled azure pierced by a sabre gules a cannon reversed of the field and thereon a sabre and a bayonet saltiredwise and an arrow palewise all points down of the third. Symbolism: The shield is yellow for cavalry. The attack on the intrenchments at Selma is symbolized by the embattled blue pale and red bayonet. The capture of Hood's artillery is shown by the reversed cannon, the rout of the enemy's cavalry at Murfreesborough by the reversed sabre, and the successful Indian campaigns by the reversed arrow. The Bud Dajo campaign is indicated by the conventionalized volcano of the crest, and the defeat of the Moros by the reversed kris in the crater. On both shield and crest is the regiment's triumphant sabre at the charge.
