[edit] SHOULDER SLEEVE INSIGNIA.
[edit] Description:
- On a light khaki square, each side two inches in width overall and with one angle up, four green ivy leaves arranged per cross issuing from a small open circle (one leaf in each angle of the square and the vertical and horizontal axis each 2 11/32 inches in length).
[edit] Symbolism:
- The four leaves allude to the numerical designation of the Division while the word "I-VY" as pronounced, suggests the characters used in the formation of the Roman numeral "IV."
- Ivy leaves are also symbolic of fidelity and tenacity.
[edit] Background:
- The shoulder sleeve insignia was originally approved on October 30, 1918 for the 4th Division without any background specified for the ivy leaf design.
- The design was embroidered on a square olive background (color of the uniform).
- On July 2, 1958, the design was changed to reflect the light khaki color background.
- It was redesignated for the 4th Infantry Division effective August 4, 1943.
