The white crenellated design at the top of the insignia refers to command and control. The four merlons, which simulate the cogs in a gear wheel, allude to the four major functions of the command’s mission. The pyramid, a symbol of strength and support, is truncated to indicate the continuing research, development, production, procurement, storage, transportation, standardization and distribution of materiel as assigned or required. The white areas simulate the letter "M" for materiel and the globe indicates the world wide scope of the Command’s responsibility in providing technical and professional guidance and assistance for planning and conducting logistics services of the Army elements of unified and specified commands and other United States and foreign customers, with scarlet referring to the military and blue referring to industry. The command’s motto, "AMERICA’S ARSENAL FOR THE BRAVE" reflects the mission of providing outstanding support to the total Army.
