The 176th Medical Brigade's (MED BDE) motto is "To Serve Proudly" and has a long history to include World War II campaign participation in France and Central Europe, which is indicated by the red fleur-de-lis in its patch—where it earned the Meritorious Unit Commendation (MUC). Today, the Brigade is headquartered in Seagoville, Texas, and is one of ten U.S. Army Reserve Brigades worldwide. Medical Brigades provide Medical Battle Command of theater medical units providing Army Health System (AHS) support for Brigade Combat Teams (BCTs), Division/Corps (DIV/CORPS), Joint and Multinational Forces.
