Effective Feb. 1, 2013, the United States Army Reserve Joint and Special Troops Support Command headquartered at Fort Douglas, Utah, has been re-designated as the 76th United States Army Reserve Operational Response Command.
The 76th ORC shoulder sleeve insignia, commonly known as a unit patch, was inherited from the 76th Infantry Division. The patch is a shield which has a red field and blue chief, separated by an olive drab line. A three-pronged white device is superimposed on the blue chief. This white device is a medieval English heraldic symbol meaning “first son.” In World War I, the 76th Division was the first division of the National Army to be drawn from civilian ranks through the draft, hence the insignia and description, "The first sons of the nation.” The combined colors of the field, the device and the chief are the national colors of red, white and blue.
