Only the US Army (not the USMC, Navy, or Air Force) use a "branch insignia" identifying their speciality (job-termed MOS=Military Occupational Speciality). Examples: Armor-two crossed swords with the front view of a M26 Pershing tank centered on the swords; Infantry-two crossed muskets; Artillery-two crossed cannon tubes (barrels); Military Police-two crossed pistols; Signal Corps-two crossed flags; Transportation-a ship's steering wheel; Chemical Corps-two crossed labratory flasks; Ordnance-a cartoon looking bomb with a fuse on top; Engineers-a castle; Administration-a red, white, and blue shield; etc.

The US Special Forces (Green Berets) use two crossed ARROWS. The SF specialize in using early (primitive) weapons. The SF used "Tomahawks" in Vietnam.
