U.S. ARMY 89TH MILITARY POLICE BRIGADE COMBAT SERVICE ID BADGE (CSIB)

Constituted in February 1966 and activated the following March 15th in Vietnam as the 89th Military Police Group, the units that went on to be included in the lineage of the 89th Military Police Brigade received official credit for participation in 15 of the 17 named campaigns of the war, more than living up to its motto of "Proven In Battle." Upon its return from Vietnam, the Group was inactivated 21 December 1971 at Fort Lewis in Washington. It was activated the following September, and on 16 July 1981 it received its current designation as Headquarters and Headquarters Company, 89th Military Police Brigade.

The 89th Military Police Brigade CSIB, or Combat Service ID Badge, is taken from the unit’s Shoulder Sleeve insignia, colloquially referred to as a unit patch. The yellow and green stripes are the colors of the Military Police Corps, which was established on 26 September 1941. Stars are used to represent courage and are frequently associated with law enforcement; the placement of this eight-point star over the nine stripes is a reference to the unit’s numerical designation. The dragon’s head represents authority and is an allusion to the Brigade’s activation in Vietnam.
