1.  In any scientific endeaver anything that can possibly go wrong will go wrong!

2.  If and when something does go wrong, there is always someone who knew it would!

3.  If there is a possibility of more than one thing going wrong, the one that does the most damage will happen!

4.  It is a proven fact that if the prototype works perfectly, the production models are bound to fail!

5.  Nature always sides with the hidden flaw!

U.S. Army Medical Command

Shoulder Sleeve Insignia (SSI):  

Symbolism: Maroon and white are the colors used for the Army Medical Department.  

The wings and serpents allude to the caduceus symbol representing all medical services

 and the sword in place of the staff relates to the United States Army.  The sword with point 

to base is symbolic of sacrifice and mercy and alludes to the noncombatant role 

of the medical services.
Background: The shoulder sleeve insignia was originally approved for the US Army 

Health Services Command on 31 January 1973.  It was amended to revise the description

and symbolism on 12 May 1975.  The insignia was re-designated for US Army Medical Command 

effective 2 October 1994, with the description revised.
