29th

Worn from:
16 September 1964 - 1968.

Old Version

Constituted 15 September 1953 in the Hawaii Army National Guard
as the 120th Signal Support Company; organized and federally recognized
January at Honolulu. Converted and re-designated in January 1959 as
the Twenty-ninth Infantry Brigade. Inducted into active federal
service May 1968. The puloulou, ancient Hawaiian symbol for protection,
is adapted from the Hawaiian coat of arms. The bars, from the Hawaiian
flag, are wavy to suggest the state's "overseas" location from the
continental United States. Red, white, and blue are the national colors.
