U.S. ARMY TRAINING AND DOCTRINE COMMAND PATCH (SSI)

The United States Army Training and Doctrine Command Shoulder Sleeve Insignia, or unit patch, was originally approved for the Replacement and School Command on 22 March 1943 and was subsequently redesignated for U.S. Army Training and Doctrine Command on 1 July 1973.

Blue, yellow, and red vertical stripes, all contained on a single disc with an Army Green border, symbolize the three basic combat arms branches—Infantry, Armor/Cavalry, and Artillery—that serve as the components of the “One Army” consisting of the Active Army, Army Reserve, and Army National Guard.

With the establishment of Training and Doctrine Command (TRADOC) in July 1973, the Army sought to streamline a training process that had become displaced across several different organizations, and to bring the development of doctrine closer to the training programs that determine how effectively the tactics and strategy determined by doctrine are actually carried out.

Based at Fort Eustis, Virginia, TRADOC achieves these objectives through five subordinate commands: The Center for Initial Training, also at Fort Eustis; Recruiting Command and Cadet Command, both at Fort Knox, Kentucky; the Combined Arms Center at Fort Leavenworth, Kansas; and the Center of Military History, Fort McNair, Washington D.C. Additionally, TRADOC oversees ten Centers of Excellence that comprise nearly three dozen Army schools and which annually teach and train over 750,000 Soldiers.
