  • 347th Regimental Crest<br /> "DARE YOUR BEST"<br /> "OUR OBJECTIVE TAKEN" <br /> <br /> Devised after combat in Europe.<br /> <br /> When the 347th Infantry first entered combat on December 14, 1944,<br /> its colors bore a crest with a plain field of blue, <br /> and carried the challenge "DARE YOUR BEST"....<br /> <br /> Accepting the challenge,<br /> the men of the Regiment fought their way through<br /> France, Belgium and Luxembourg and Germany<br /> adding victory after victory to this field. <br /> <br /> With the unconditional surrendeer of all German Forces,<br /> they added the final answer, "OUR OBJECTIVE TAKEN"...<br /> <br /> The crown of the crest is topped with the Combat Infantry Badge. <br /> <br /> Below the crown and above the field of blue<br /> is a row of Dragon's Teeth over German Colors, <br /> commemorating the smashing of the Siegfried Line<br /> and the battle of Germany. <br /> <br /> In the blue field is found a salient, bordered on the left with the colors of France and on the right with the colors of Belgium. <br /> <br /> This salient represents the battle of the Ardennes and carries a background of white for the severe winter fighting. <br /> <br /> In the center of this white field is the "Golden Acorn" of the<br /> 87th INFANTRY DIVISION encircled by the Colors of Luxembourg. <br /> <br /> Surrounding these colors is found the deep blue circle signifying the successful assaults of the Moselle and Rhine Rivers.<br /> <br /> Since the 347th is a Reserve Regiment, the entire crest is surmounted by the figure of the Minuteman, symbol of perpetual preparedness. <br /> <br /> This photo taken from the original History book is in Color...<br /> All subsequent books that were printed the Crest is in Black & white. <br /> <br /> The Crest was designed by<br /> pfc Jack Stuart<br /> Company "E", 347th Infantry.<br /> <br /> We welcome any comments/thoughts/memories...<br /> just click on "comment" at lower left of this page.<br /> <br /> submitted by: <br /> John McAuliffe; M-347 - WWII - <br /> Battle of the Bulge

    My father-in-law has been telling me of stories of the 346 Company C for years. Many during the war and a few after the war. Some amusing. I find very little regarding Company C. Could someone assist me with more information regarding his company. His name is Ted Rolof, Michigan. Thank You, james_schwab@hotmail.com
