US Army Field Artillery Patch — United States Army Field Artillery Branch Embroidered Patch
King of Battle — Field Artillery.
The US Army Field Artillery Branch patch represents the artillerymen who have been the "King of Battle" since the Army's founding. Field Artillery provides the devastating indirect fire support that shapes the battlefield, suppresses enemy positions, and enables the maneuver of friendly forces — raining steel on the enemy from miles away.
Field Artillery soldiers operate a range of weapons systems from towed howitzers to self-propelled guns to the Army's most advanced rocket and missile systems like the M142 HIMARS and M270 MLRS. The branch traces its lineage to Henry Knox's Continental Army artillery that helped win American independence, and today's artillerymen carry that tradition forward with precision-guided munitions capable of striking targets with devastating accuracy at ranges exceeding 40 miles. The Field Artillery motto "King of Battle" reflects the branch's historical importance — more casualties in modern warfare have been caused by artillery than any other weapons system, making the field artilleryman one of the most consequential soldiers on the battlefield.
This patch represents the Army's devastating indirect fire capability.
Perfect For: Field Artillery soldiers, cannon crew members, rocket artillery operators, and Army branch heritage collectors.
