UNIT HISTORY
The 1st Signal Brigade (subordinate to the Eighth U.S. Army and 311th Signal Command) deployed to Vietnam as the Army's primary theater-level communications force. Operating from fixed stations and mobile relay teams across the country, the brigade ensured command and control from the DMZ to the Mekong Delta — earning the motto "First to Communicate" through every engagement.
This is more than a hoodie. It's a record of service.
