74th Infantry Regiment (U.S. Army) Holographic STICKER Die-Cut Vinyl Decal

A heraldic crest built from a royal blue shield, crimson cross and crossed feathered arrows, with the motto AUDAX ET FORTIS set across a silver scroll banner.

Visual Elements & Composition

Royal blue takes the largest share of the design, held within a vertical shield with a pointed base. Crimson red carries the central charge, a red Latin cross, while a silver fleur-de-lis and crossed arrows with feathered fletching sit around it. The composition is symmetrical and layered like a formal heraldic crest, with a scroll banner anchoring the lower edge. The words AUDAX, ET and FORTIS are the only lettering, and they read clearly against the blue and red. The artwork is flat vector with metallic gradient edging on the silver and shield outlines, which gives the crest its polished, insignia-like finish.

Meaning & Symbolism

The motto Audax et Fortis translates to "Bold and Brave," and it sits at the heart of the 74th Infantry Regiment's distinctive unit insignia. The regiment served in two distinct incarnations: a World War I unit assigned to the 12th Division during 1918–1919, and a World War II unit formed from the remnants of the joint US-Canadian 1st Special Service Force, known as the "Devil's Brigade." The red cross, crossed arrows and fleur-de-lis are heraldic elements that reflect the unit's lineage and the valor associated with its service in major twentieth-century conflicts. This design is a tribute to that history, created in the spirit of the original insignia.

Made to Be Carried Onto Your Own Surfaces

Because a die-cut sticker is cut to its own outline, the crest's shield, banner and arrows stand as a single shape rather than a rectangle with a background. That silhouette suits laptops, journals and gear where the emblem can be placed on its own. The holographic finish catches light as the sticker is turned, shifting the blue and red across the metallic silver edging, so the insignia reads differently from each angle.
